Teamviewer GUI not starting anymore

I have version 12.0.85001-6 installed on Manjaro 17.05

For some reason the teamviewer program is not starting at all.

If I try running in a terminal, I can see the following - then nothing happens at all.

[adminuser@adminuser-pc ~]$ teamviewer

Init...
CheckCPU: SSE2 support: yes
Checking setup...
Launching TeamViewer ...
Launching TeamViewer GUI ...
[adminuser@adminuser-pc ~]$

I've tried this on 2 machines both running the same os and latest version of teamviewer.

It used to work fine, but same problem on both machines of it not starting at all.

Any ideas how to resolve?

Thanks

Issue still present in 2020 on Debian 9.10 (stretch), Debian 10.4 (buster), Ubuntu 18.04.4 (bionic) and Arch Linux. It's very disappointing that I couldn't find a recent Linux distribution where I could run TeamViewer. So guess what I can do. I have to start VirtualBox with bloated Windows 10 to get TeamViewer working. I would start a much lighter and faster Windows XP VirtualBox but you've removed XP support regardless of many customers still use XP on remotely accessed legacy systems (mostly insdustrial applications) where it can't be replaced.

Why are you expecting people to buy TeamViewer in the first place if you can't provide proper support for it at all? Linux users are struggling with TeamViewer for at least 3 years, still you don't seem to do anything about it.

If you're not compatible with recent versions of libfreetype, then do something about it. Refactor your code or ship your own freetype (LGPL allows that).

If you're not willing to fix TeamViewer on Linux then just don't state that TeamViewer supports Linux and don't offer download of the Linux version. Because right now TeamViewer simply doesn't work on Linux.

I was starting kde plasma using startx from the commandline. Enablind sddm as login manager solved the problem for me.

Maybe this will help someone else.

I had this statment in my log file:

GX1!! QML load error: qrc:/ui/EULADialog/EULADialog.qml:3:1: module "QtQuick.Controls" is not installed, Errorcode=11

then:

sudo apt -y install qml-module-qtquick-controls

after this I deleted the:

/gui.lock

and worked.

I had exactly the same issue.

This is due to a 'gui.lock' file. Removing this lock file solved the issue. Path of this file is:

/var/log/teamviewer14/username/gui.lock

I solved this by entering the following four commands:

sudo teamviewer daemon restart

sudo teamviewer daemon disable

sudo teamviewer daemon enable

teamviewer

I found an easy way to install teamviewer, without manually changing all the library versions in the path. It's not a perfect solution, (it uses Nix, an alternative package manager), but it works:

First, install nix:

curl https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

then enable the unfree repositories

echo "{ allowUnfree = true; }" > ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix

install teamviewer

nix-env -iA nixpkgs.teamviewer

then, run the daemon as root

sudo -E env "PATH=$PATH" teamviewerd

and start the client

teamviewer

Please, note that you need to run these two last command each time you reboot, because the daemon will NOT be started automatically.

Something I have in gui.log: libicu52_1 and libicu52_1-32 bit installed !

I am running on Arch Linux and see similar behaviour.

After trying to launch the gui I see the following with ps -ef | grep teamv

root 16684 1 0 16:23 ? 00:00:00 /opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/teamviewerd -d

john 22432 22282 98 16:31 tty2 00:02:58 /opt/teamviewer//tv_bin/TVGuiSlave.64 31 1

If I run from the command line there is no additional information

journalctl -f shows

btw, netstat shows following:

[adminuser@adminuser-pc ~]$ sudo netstat -ntap | grep teamviewer
