Fax is not received

After trying to use Fax2Email functionality in Asterisk CLI you see:

• Check permissions on /var/spool/asterisk/faxes

---

mor_fax2email: MOR Fax2Email v0.1.3 AGI script started.
mor_fax2email: Failed to connect database server. Check debug for more info.
mor_fax2email: ERROR! Not connected to database.

Solution:

In /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/mor.conf correct DB connection settings.

---

__ast_pbx_run: Channel 'Local/999@mor_local-1217,2' sent into invalid extension 'fax' in context 'mor_fax2email', but no invalid handler

Make sure /etc/asterisk/extensions_mor.conf has such line:

[mor_fax2email]

exten => _X.,1,Answer
exten => _X.,2,StopPlaytones
exten => _X.,3,Playback(beep)
exten => _X.,4,Set(FAXFILE=${CDR(UNIQUEID)})
exten => _X.,5,RxFax(/var/spool/asterisk/faxes/${FAXFILE}.tif)

exten => fax,1,Goto(mor_fax2email,111,1)

exten => h,1,DeadAGI(mor_fax2email)
exten => h,2,Hangup

If not - add such line (marked in bold) and reload Asterisk.

ERROR! TIF file does not exist!

If you get a similar output in Asterisk CLI:

mor_fax2email:

that means that FAX was not received and you should search for the problem in the sending side.
