ICTFAX Community 6.0

[kmorber]

Hello,

i read that Version 6.0 has been released, where can i download this version?

Best regrads

[java007md]

From the installation guidance at: https://ictfax.org/ictfax-installation-guide/, it looks like the first option "Rocky Linux 8 ICTFax 6.0" installs 6.0. The github source code does not appear to be updated though - that would be nice to see.

Edit: Upon further investigation, I was unable to successfully install via either of the Rocky Linux 8 tabs on the installation guide. I suspect updates to the referenced links, signatures, etc., are needed to proceed. Will continue looking, but it's not a simple cut and paste process from the guide.

Just wanted to chime in. ICTFax 6.0 is completely unusable in its current state on Rocky 8. I can't imagine it would work on anything else either. Installing isn't a huge pain, but the software just doesn't work. Fix one issue for another to arise. ICTFax 5.0 also doesn't seem to be buildable to due the closed-source dependencies.

Can you please share the details of facing issue, we will check and fix it accordingly.

Here is what I've come across with 6.0 so far.
I did get further than some of these issues, but getting one thing "fixed" broke others. So the information I've gathered below is from a fresh install on Rocky Linux 8.

OS: Rocky Linux v8.10
firewalld disabled
selinux permissive/disabled
Install under root. No user account. (tried it both ways, all commands need sudo anyways).

UI/Web page (basic observations):

When attempting to click on Send/Receiving it sends me back to the Dashboard page, Every time.
When clicking around, it will randomly send me to the dashboard page. Eventually, I'm not able to click around at all and it just loads the Dashboard page over and over. Restarting httpd fixes this until I start clicking around again.

Can't sign in as "user" account only admin.
#67 references this.
ICTKashif commented on Oct 29, 2022
#root_user > mysql ictfax
#mysql_cli > insert role_permission (role_id, permission_id) values (1,74);

However, when I did this, a user could access/view the "Administration" drop-down.

Installation issues (least to most severe):

Line 10 can be removed from /usr/ictcore/db/ictfax.sql

pecl install imagick
Results in a bunch of errors.
This is more so just curiosity, under what circumstances will this work?

sudo yum install -y php-imagick
results in no errors

These seem like the main errors/issues or at least a starting place.
The error in /var/log/httpd/error_log happens every time I click on a category (contacts, fax documents).
The errors in /usr/ictcore/log/ictcore.log fire when logging in and often continue while that user is logged in. They stop if nobody is logged in.

I just noticed the Installation Guide has been updated.
I figure Rocky 8 is similar enough, but I'll take a look at Rocky 9 so we can get on the same page.

[WITMAC-N]

Exact same issues on Rocky 9.
No gpg error when installing ictcore files now.
Is there anything missing from the install guide? I noticed some small stuff like adding the PHP repo is missing.
yum install https://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-9.rpm

[ICTKashif]

If you are encountering issues with the GPG key while installing ICTFax using the yum command, you can use the --nogpgcheck option with yum. This is due to a third-party repository.

yum install ictcore --nogpgcheck

in case of same issue, share the error logs

[WITMAC-N]

Yup, that was what I was using to install on Rocky 8. Rocky 9 imported the gpg key without issue.

Got the same problem with the redirect to the dashboard no matter where I click

[java007md]

Got the same problem with the redirect to the dashboard no matter where I click

I finally managed to get the installation completed, but after successfully adding a trunk entry, like @NiklasDor, subsequent clicks quickly loop back, and redirect to the dashboard. Error logs similar to those reported by @WITMAC-N are observed.

Happy to do some additional testing if @ICTKashif or others have suggestions.
