Connectivity issue [2018-11-08]

Dear users and customers.

We still experience technical issues with the database servers that lead to interrupted services. We are in the process of getting the service back up.

Sincere apologies for the inconvenience.

Update to come.

Best, Esther

The Teamviewer is still not working on my end at 2:35 DST. Does not recognize that I have a license.

Thanks for information.

To be clear.
I had problems today, before 09:00 CET (in the morning).
The problem was that during the connection (which was not broken), TeamViewer APP disconnected from the servers and logged out the user, and more precisely: the TVAPP window lost the contact list, logged out of the application and jumped out before the active session, which happiness did not disconnect. After less than a minute, the application logged in again and downloaded the contact list.

Dear TeamViewer Users and Customers,

Please accept our apologies for the outage today.

On behalf of the team here at TeamViewer I would like to thank you all for your patience and as well for reaching out to us. We know that you rely on TeamViewer for your professional and personal productivity and such an interruption of service is not what you expect to experience.

I can assure you that everybody was working hard on getting the service up and running again as quickly as possible. Thank you also for your feedback and for sending in some words of encouragement for our tech staff who did their utmost to support you as good as possible.

As promised in this thread, I want to keep you updated on the connectivity issue we were experiencing today (November 8th, 2018).

The issue was detected on November 8th around 11:10 am CET as latencies in services
At 11:23 am CET we informed our userbase via our status page and updates inside our community as well as via twitter
Our business continuity procedures identified a database service as the issue at 1.20 pm CET
While most of the services were up and running by 5:02 pm CET, we were fixing the last issues to make sure that all services are up and running again and now we are still monitoring the services.
Running sessions were not affected

Our development team is working on making sure that this issue will not happen again.

I and we apologize once again for the trouble this has caused you.

Thanks again and all the best

Esther

Hi @jmac999

Thanks for your feedback.

Yes - I am currently investigating and talking with the development team.

I will post more information as soon as possible.

For all who are still facing issues: As my colleague Natascha wrote, please make sure to restart your TeamViewer service.

Thanks and best, Esther

Natascha

Hi,

Thank you for your message.

I recommend you to restart the TeamViewer service.

-Execute "run", type "services.msc" and press OK

-Now find TeamViewer, and restart it by doing a right click.

Then, restart the TeamViewer application. It should work again.

I hope this could help. If not, do not hesitate to contact us again.

Best,
Natascha

Can we get an explanation of what the issue was, why it occured and what mitigating factors are being put in place to avoid such a major outage in the future?

This is of serious concern as we couldn't support our customers during this period, and these outages seem to occur more often recently (excluding those you don't even report about)!

Esther

UPDATE:

Everything is back online and running. Still - we are monitoring the services.

Best,

Esther

UPDATE:

Connections to devices with TeamViewer ID and through your Computer & Contact list have been restored again.

We are now working on getting the TeamViewer Chat, Management Console and New Account creation back online.

I keep you posted.
