Hi guys ... I have a VPS running Ubuntu 13.04 64 bit, and I've installed Teamviewer 8 64bit on it .. The program itself runs, but there's no internet activity .. I try to sign in into my teamviewer account, and it cannot connect to the server ...

Sometimes, it *seems* that Teamviewer can connect to the internet, because it gives me a Teamviewer ID for the Ubuntu VPS .. But when I try connecting to this ID from my local Windows PC, I cannot go beyond the "Connecting .." stage ..

And sometimes even this does not happen, and I just get a message in Ubuntu Teamvewer saying "Not ready. Please check your connection"

I am not using any proxies. I have a direct static IP address, and I've got it confirmed from my VPS provider that they're not blocking Teamviewer in any wya ..

So what's the issue here ?

Hello,

just to notify anyone wo had this problem:
I stumbled upon this thread when i had the same problem and I did not want to contact support immediately (although i am using TV private and with a Premium license).

Support suggested me to download the "unsopported" tar.gz package from

http://www.teamviewer.com/de/download/linux.aspx

and it work instantly.

They must've changed versions for the unsupported .tar.gz, because the one linked now says that the install routine is not implemented...

Yep, it works for me too .. I can connect now .. However I can't 'control' the remote Ubuntu machine via Teamviewer .. It doesn't seem to be accepting input, e.g. no mouse movement registering, no keyboard key presses registering ?
