[hylafax-users] NoCarrierRetries seems to have no effect

[Steve Cox <s.cox@ConquestBM.com>]

Hi,

I'm running Hylafax 4.1.1 (from debian apt installation). A USR faxmodem
class1

I'm having problem with the system acting on whether I have called a fax
machine or it has been picked up. It looks like calls to 'humans' are
getting re-queued a few times and the number of retries - though normally
twice - can seem to be random. 

Looking at the faxstat -d results, it's detecting 'no carrier' but seems to
be re-queuing them. Here's sample output filtered for these:



1322 125 F   root 5555 542571    0:1   3:12         No carrier detected
1488 124 F   root 5555 426634    0:1   4:12         No carrier detected
1498 126 F   root 5555 46046     0:1   2:12         No carrier detected
1500 126 F   root 5555 883334    0:1   2:12         No carrier detected
1499 126 F   root 5555 263592    0:1   2:12         No carrier detected
1510 126 F   root 5555 749451    0:1   2:12         No carrier detected
1509 126 F   root 5555 347 0002  0:1   2:12         No carrier detected


I've added the NoCarrierRetrys to the /var/spool/hylafax/etc/config file,
together with test values for MaxDials and MaxTries and restarted but to no
effect:


LogFacility:            local5
CountryCode:            44
AreaCode:               1603
LongDistancePrefix:     0
InternationalPrefix:    001
DialStringRules:        etc/dialrules
ServerTracing:          0x08501
#
NoCarrierRetrys:        1               # retry 1 times on no carrier
MaxDials:               3              
MaxTries:               3              






Any thoughts on what may be going wrong? I am assuming that theses changes
to the config files will effect those jobs already submitted - provided the
daemons are restarted.

Thanks

Steve Cox
