Teamviewer setup is not recognising daemon

  • 772

I am trying to setup teamviewer's raspberry pi client on my banana pi. As described below, even after confirming that teamviewer daemon is running, teamviewer setup still insists it is not running, despite all the evidence. I am running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

pi@bananapi:~$ sudo teamviewer daemon start

initctl start teamviewerd
teamviewerd start/running, process 3024

pi@bananapi:~$ sudo teamviewer setup


TeamViewer daemon is not running, setup cannot continue. Please activate the TeamViewer daemon before invoking setup.

pi@bananapi:~$ sudo teamviewer daemon start

initctl start teamviewerd
teamviewerd start/running, process 3234

pi@bananapi:~$ sudo teamviewer daemon status

initctl status teamviewerd
teamviewerd start/running, process 3290

pi@bananapi:~$

Help to fix this issue and to continue with the setup would be ideal. Thank you.

  1. I had this problem trying to run teamviewer setup on a graphical console on a linux desktop (using Chrome Remote Desktop).

    The moment I've tried on the console directly (in my case, ssh onto the machine without any X forwarding and such), it worked like a charm.
