Enable teamviewer daemon ubuntu

Teamviewer 12

Ubuntu

I have succesfully installed teamviewer on ubunty, but when i start it, it says the deamon is not running.

So i tried:

sudo teamviewer --daemon start

But it says the daemon is already running, and the request will be ignored.

So i tried to stop it first, and than start it again. Nope

Tried enable instead of start, didn't work either..

Anny other ideas?

Also - when I attempt to connect to the machine I get :

No connection to partner! Partner did not connect to router. Error code: WaitforConnectFailed

So this all helped me a TON, got teamviewer running but I cant get "teamviewer setup" to run, I get :

/opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/teamviewer-config: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

When I do "teamviewer status" I get :

Hello! i wanted to add to this as i had a weird case causing the OP message to occur regardless of daemon status.

IF:

sudo systemctl enable teamviewerd.service

has been manually invoked prior to

sudo teamviewer daemon enable

then simply enabling daemon will not work.

fix:

1. sudo systemctl disable teamviewerd.service

2. sudo teamviewer daemon enable

---

the output is the same but it will allow teamviewer to manage the service - otherwise it fails silently.

spyamine

sudo teamviewer --daemon enable

this should work!1
