[asterisk-users] error receiving a fax ... but with a fax that was received without problems

[Bart Remmerie]

Dear all,

When receiving a fax, the extension is "spawned", despite nothing but
positive messages (see below)

The sending fax considers it a success & the verbose output of asterisk
gives a "FAX_SUCCESS" and a "NO_ERROR" error in the ReceiveFax command.

The problem is that all the next steps (conversion of the fax to pdf &
sending it to a mailbox) are never executed.  When I do this manually,
there seems nothing wrong with the received file ....

Any hints ?

Asterisk output:

*    -- *Executing [502 at LocalSets:5] *ReceiveFAX*("*DAHDI/4-1*", "
*/tmp/201409211416.tif*") in new stack

*    -- *Channel 'DAHDI/4-1' receiving FAX '/tmp/201409211416.tif'
