  1. I think I have oracle Linux server 8.
    I tried using

    $ sudo yum install teamviewer_15.17.6.x86_64.rpm 
    

    but it always said CONFLICTING REQUESTS.

    I tried adding --skip-broken or --nobest and still error. All software including chrome or anything I download have these errors.

  2. Getting error:

    Unable to locally verify the issuer’s authority.

    To connect to download.teamviewer.com insecurely, use `–no-check-certificate‘.

    Can you please help with it

    Reply
    • @Suheb,

      Just add the -–no-check-certificate at the end of the wget command as shown.

      # wget https://download.teamviewer.com/download/linux/teamviewer.x86_64.rpm –-no-check-certificate

  3. How do you get TeavViewer to run automatically after a reboot so you can log in to it remotely. At the moment no matter what I do I need to locally log into KDE before TeavViewer starts

  4. TeamViewer does not work with Wayland – you need to run in Xsession. Fedora 25 will default to Wayland, cause it works better, so keep that in mind.

    Reply
    • @Dan,

      Thanks for the tip, yes I agree Fedora 25 comes with Wayland, but I tried TeamViewer 12 on my CentOS 7 and Fedora 23 worked perfectly..

    • @Ariel,

      That’s really great, in my case I removed earlier 11 version and installed fresh TeamViewer 12 to avoid any conflicts….

    You could try running: rpm -Va –nofiles –nodigest

    Are there any comments?

    • Hi,
      have the same error here.
      I think you use the tcsh-shell.
      Have a look at the limit command.
      There is a part descriptors, which might be to low.
      Set it to 300 or more, because it is needed by the teamviewer start script.
      Have a look at tvw_exec there is a part with “exec >> 300” which cause the error.

      If you don’t want to set it, you can create a litte startscript for teamviewer with
      csh -c ‘limit descriptors 512 && teamviewer’

      It will create a newcsh-session with higher descriptors just for teamviewer.

    And yet whenever I look for it in the menu either under “Internet” or under “All Applications” it doesn’t appear. Also if I type the application name “Teamviewer” in Menu search, all it comes up with is the install package. So I run with and without “sudo”. With, I get:

    Init…

    Launching TeamViewer …

    but nothing seems to happen
    and without “sudo” teamviewer starts but then almost immediately crashes and the only clue I get is the normal teamviewer window, except there’s a message at the bottom left of the “TeamViewer” window stating: “Not ready. Please check your connection”. Teamviewer then appears to crash after approximately five or seconds.

    I’m running the following (live) version/distro:
    Linux mint 3.11.0-12-generic #19-Ubuntu

    Does anyone have any info on this for me, please !

    Thank you !

  13. Tutorial is solid. My only issue is that the server shows its connected, and goes thru the motions of a connection for the display from the client, client shows connecting, but nothing. It worked prior to changing over to Fedora 20. I have noticed that 9 has more options then previous verions of 8 that was installed w/my fedora 19 installation (which had no issues connecting from my SG3 to my pc.

    You could try using –skip-broken to work around the problem
    You could try running: rpm -Va –nofiles –nodigest

    • To overcome this problem, run the following command to install the teamviewer rpm. The below yum command will take care of dependencies.

      	
      # yum localinstall teamviewer_linux.rpm

    • Teamviewer on AIX doesn’t work

      # rpm -Uvh teamviewer_linux.rpm
      will not work
      neither will
      # yum localinstall teamviewer_linux.rpm
      because there is no yum on AIX

      any other advice.

    • Srinivas – I have the same problem (Ubuntu 12.04): TV8 does not detect microphone and headset. Since TV8 uses its prepackaged wine, how did you configure it to detect your mic and headset. (Normal detection in linux, and even a separately installed wine does work, so it must be in the TV8 local wine configuration)

      Thanks.

  27. What is the advantage of using Teamviewer over LogMeIn, especially since teamviewer requires a hacked client, while logmein can view the remote machine from within a browser?

    Reply
    • what logmein can do, teamviewer does it better, and it’s free too, no need to crack it like you said. Works like a charm. File transfer or control is faster, image is smoother, and you can make conferences with multiple people.
