As mentioned in @seyn6gk's comment

Without changing anything, since teamviewer 13 a desktop environment/login with display manager like lightdm/sddm/gdm is required.

startx users can follow workaround mentioned in @r7v s comment

r7v commented on 2022-06-07 14:49 (UTC)

Workaround for startx

Create drop-in /etc/systemd/system/getty@tty1.service.d/getty@tty1.service-drop-in.conf with

[Service]
Environment=XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11

fresh install of teamviewer_15, using i3wm.

starting teamviewer: Launching TeamViewer GUI ... no GUI is started, ID is 0

teamviewer info: Try restarting the TeamViewer daemon (e.g. teamviewer --daemon restart)

did sudo systemctl enable teamviewerd and start and restart a few times, nothing. teamviewerd is active and running but teamviewer doesn't recognize it. did not change the permissons yet, this should be done by the package?

Furthermore: "ngoonee 2019-11-08 08:11
This package generates a broken symlink /usr/share/licenses/teamviewer/LICENSE which points to /opt/teamviewer/License.txt (which doesn't exist). Please fix"

for me still "broken"

"ferda 2019-11-09 15:13 Line 9 in /usr/lib/systemd/system/teamviewerd.service should be changed to PIDFile = /run/teamviewerd.pid in order to stop systemd from complaining about the PIDFile path."

for me PIDFile = /var/run/teamviewerd.pid and /var/run points to /run so should be ok?

Can you please adress this in a small package update? Thanks

Hi

Permanent solution: sudo systemctl enable teamviewerd

reboot

@callmejoe

I can confirm that restarting teamviewerd worked. I think that tip should be pinned @swiftgeek

@steineklopfer

the permissions solved the issue for me. Thanks.

steineklopfer commented on 2019-12-04 10:37 (UTC)

@afx I used the permissions from buzo's comment (buzo commented on 2019-08-23 12:00) and also applied the same permissions to the file inside that folder.

A "systemctl restart teamviewerd" might also help

boustanihani commented on 2019-12-03 12:45 (UTC)

Teamviewer shows ready, but no ID and no password is generated :(

mdphoto commented on 2019-12-02 16:07 (UTC)

I have I3-wm I have a problem with the inactive field of login/psw i found à solution in terminal make sudo teamviewer setup and follow the instruction, next start teamviewer.

afx commented on 2019-11-27 22:43 (UTC)

Can confirm the same problem as PhotonX: "Not Ready, Please check your connection"

Also, regarding steineklopfer comment, what are the required permissions on /etc/teamviewer dir?

callmejoe commented on 2019-11-26 14:54 (UTC)

teamviewer15 client will not issue user id unless i restart teamviewerd.service even though that service does start at boot and is active (running).
