I seemed to install it successfully, but when I attempted to launch it kept throwing errors:



Ran with su then got this:



Init...
CheckCPU: SSE2 support: yes
XRandRWait: No value set. Using default.
XRandRWait: Started by user.
Checking setup...
Launching TeamViewer ...
Starting network process (no daemon)
terminate called without an active exception
/opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/script/tvw_exec: line 40: 4093 Aborted "$TV_BIN_DIR/teamviewerd" -n -f
Network process already started (or error)
Launching TeamViewer GUI ...


A box popped up after a minute saying:




The TeamViewer daemon is not running! Please start the daemon (needs root permissions) before running TeamViewer.




teamviewer --daemon start


If you did not disable the daemon, please contact Teamviewer support



Run the following Command to obtain all log files



teamviewer --ziplog


I did that and have a zip file that I don't know what to do with.. Also, the support claims they can't help me without a license...



What can I do about this?



I'm on linux mint 18.1 Serena Cinnamon 64-bit



If you want the zip file, let me know.



EDIT1: Also, for some reason, it tried to launch again 20 hours after I'd left it alone... it was confusing and a little alarming... I did get it from the official website so...

Because:



apt-cache policy teamviewer


showed:




teamviewer:i386:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: (none)
Version table:
***12.0.71510 0 100
/var/lib/dpkg/status



The installation has not gone well. Just stating the fact it was partially installed.





There was obviously a missing dependency:



libjpeg62:i386


Which has been remedied by a reboot and:



sudo apt-get install -f


So the missing dependency is now in place, no further action required. And the TeamViewer will be running just fine now.

    Open the terminal an run the following command (as root):

    Start the teamviewerd.service :



    systemctl start teamviewerd.service


    Check the status:



    systemctl status teamviewerd.service
