Cannot connect to Teamviewer server

At random, I can sometimes connect and sometimes not. The strange thing is that I see the Server connected online and when I try to connect it disconnects and connects continually, showing the message "Connection not established - Authentication canceled". So that sometimes it works for me, I have to connect by remote desktop to this Server and then I can connect by TW without problems.

    Hi serjaime,

    Thanks for posting.

    This is most likely because you are connecting to a "User ID" rather than the "Server ID" for a windows server.

    TeamViewer assigned the server an ID, then each RDP user a different ID. IF you are connecting to a user ID and the RDP session is not active, Windows will not generate a display so you will only see black.

    If you want to connect without the RDP session active, you need to use the Server ID (Found Under "About TeamViewer".

    Please see our article on TeamViewer on Windows Servers and Black Screen

    I hope this answers your question!

    Hello
    I use the "Server Id", This did not happen before but with the last update it is continuous.

    Is the server headless?

    The fact that you can connect fine when you are connected with RDP seriously makes me think this is a "no display output" problem.

    Hi Scotty,

    I have the same problem with our Windows Server 2012. We are using them as a Terminalserver.

    Maybe you found a solution?

    best regards
