PATCH: hfaxd 4.0pl1 fixes for WHFC "syntax error" bug
Been testing this fix out for a few days, and it seems to work well. So
here it is.
This patch to hfaxd fixes the occurrence of the "500 '': Syntax error,
expecting command token." error we've been fighting, using Hylafax 4.0pl1
and WHFC 0.x. This patch is applied by going to your hfaxd directory, and
feeding the following (after "CUT HERE") to the "patch" utility.
After watching the incoming stream from UNIX and NT clients, the problem
seems to localize in the getCmdLine() function of Parser.c++. While the
command stream from UNIX clients appears continuous and unbroken, the
Windows client stream is sporadic and broken (odd Gates-ian flow control?).
Is broken flow triggers execution of the lines:
if (c == EOF)
return (FALSE);
Hfaxd is then executing other code, then resuming the parse. It
unfortunately is not remembering where it left off with the partial input
line, and is wiping it out. This patch fixes this.
Hope it works for you too. Good luck.
