Re: [hylafax-users] Blocked by concurrent call problem since upgrade to 4.2.2



Can you see if this happens with current CVS HEAD? There have been some changes since 4.2.2 that were intended as "feature adds", but they may have acutally fixed these problems you're seeing because they dealt with the same code.

Snapshots of CVS HEAD are available on the ftp site.

In any case, I am unable to reproduce this problem with current CVS HEAD.

Thanks,

Lee.

Hi,

I upgraded from HylaFAX 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 a few days ago, and since the upgrade I have had the following strange problem:

Sometimes, when a fax is sent to the same destination number more than once, it never attempts to dial, but both jobs go straight into 'Blocked by concurrent call', and seem to lock each other out. My 'MaxConcurrentCalls' parameter is set to '1'.

for example, the command used to submit the fax is (N=NUMBER):

sendfax -d <N1> -d <N1> -d <N2> -d <N3> -d <N3> <filename>

there are 3 unique numbers there, with two of them repeated (double destination).

The first job for N1, and N2 start sending, the second job for N1 goes into 'Blocked by concurrent' (so far so good), but BOTH jobs for N3 go directly into 'Blocked by concurrent call' and never actually attempt to send. After the send for N1 finishes, the second send to N1 unblocks as it should, and then it sends). Afterwards, the only thing left is two blocked jobs to N3, without an attempt to dial N3 ever been made, and there are no other active current jobs to N3 anywhere in the queue... The blocked jobs are always the ones to the 4th and 5th destination, never to the 1st and 2nd, even though those numbers are also identical.

It seems that it is not really a problem with sending to 2 identical destination numbers, as a send to 'N1 N2 N1 N3 N3 N2 N4', for example, works, as I found out with some testing. From the patterns, my random guess would be that this only appears to happen when there is more than one group of consecutive identical destinations specified.

The destination numbers have not changed, so I definitely know that this did NOT exist in 4.2.1. Any ideas if anything has changed in the scheduling of concurrent jobs from version 4.2.1 to 4.2.2?

regards,
Jordan
