Disregard,

Sorry for the noise, the post run scripts left the fax scheduler not running.
Manually restarting all faxq, fax and hfaxd services worked.

Following restarting everything:

 # faxstat -v
Trying localhost [10] (::1) at port 4559...
Trying localhost [2] (127.0.0.1) at port 4559...

I haven't heard back on the hylafax list yet, but this error is reproducible
on Arch 4.18.9 with a simple example, e.g.

 $ sendfax -vv -n -d 5551212 anyfile.pdf
 ...
 460 Failed to submit job 130: Unable to open scheduler FIFO: No such device
or address.
 460 Failed to submit job 130: Unable to open scheduler FIFO: No such device
or address.

Simply rebooting to LTS (4.14.71) and the command succeeds without any problem.

Is anyone else seeing this?

The last successful outbound fax before this failure began was 9/19. Since
that time the only relevant updates have been:

linux (4.18.8.arch1-1 -> 4.18.9.arch1-1)
hylafax (6.0.6-8 -> 6.0.7-1)

Since hylafax 6.0.7-1 works fine with LTS, that points to linux 4.18.9 being
the problem.

What would I check to determine why sendfax is unable to open scheduler FIFO
(No such device or address) when running on linux 4.18.9? Permissions under
/var/spool/hylafax are the same under both kernels:

The FIFO is there owned by uucp:uucp in both cases. Did the latest kernel
tighten some type of security that would effect mkfifo for hylafax in some way?

This caught me somewhat off-guard as both Arch servers are used in a
production capacity and I had a fax that needed to go to Scottsdale before
close of business.

Any thoughts welcomed. I'll also post to the hylafax list and report back if
there is any information there.

[arch-general] sendfax: 460 Failed to submit job 110: Unable to open scheduler FIFO: No such device or address.

2018-09-26 Thread David C. Rankin
All,

  After recent updates, hylafax/sendfax fails with the error:

sendfax: 460 Failed to submit job 110: Unable to open scheduler FIFO: No such
device or address.

it had been working find up until the last week or two. Reverting to the LTS
kernel resolves the issue. There are no obvious errors in the journal.

  Does anyone know why sendfax would begin failing with "Unable to open
scheduler FIFO: No such device or address." with the current kernel, but work
fine on LTS?

(I have confirmed this behavior on two separate Arch servers)

[arch-general] MariaDB package version

I recently noticed Arch Linux's mariadb package is still on the 10.1
release series, even though upstream has considered the 10.2 and 10.3
release series to be "stable" for at least 4 months. Arch is usually so
good about keeping everything up-to-date, so I am curious what the
reason for this is. Something to do with compatibility?

[arch-general] rtlwifi

2018-09-26 Thread Frank Zimmermann
Good afternoon,

my log is flooded with these messages:
Sep 26 09:09:45 defiant kernel: rtl8192se: switch case 0x5e not
processed
Sep 26 09:09:54 defiant kernel: rtlwifi: AP off, try to reconnect now 

Approx everey 10 sec there's a new entry. My wifi connection is quite
buggy even when close to the router, so am not sure if that might be a
reason.

My favourite search engine came up with some links suggesting that
these module options will help:
options rtl8192se fwlps=0 ips=0 swlps=0 swenc=1

However, I do not see any difference with them.

any ideas how to get around this?

THX Frank

Yes they dropped support for it which was a real blow, but luckily
existing machines weren't stopped and we still have several Arch
machines running.

[arch-general] [News] DigitalOcean "supporting" Arch Linux

2018-09-26 Thread Eduardo Machado via arch-general
Hi folks,

Firstly, i am not a digitalocean affiliated, but i use their services.
A long time ago, Arch Linux was one the supported OSes, latter they dropped
this support.
Now, although it is not officially supported again they just launched the
ability to upload Custom Images into DigitalOcean. You can now import the
OS of your choice directly into DigitalOcean and start a Droplet. [1]
