[Solved] Team Viewer Installation on Cent OS 7 | Fedora | RHEL

Team Viewer Installation fails on CentOS 7. Following is the resolution.

I wanted to setup TeamViewer 13.1 on CentOS 7.4 and it failed with following dependency list. I had to spend 1 hour to resolve never-ending dependency chain. Finally, I could do it. Now, it is simple. You can setup (install) teamviewer13.1 on CentOS 7.x in just a few minutes.

 

[root@node2 Downloads]# rpm -ivh teamviewer_13.1.3026.x86_64.rpm

Solution steps:

1. Install all the dependencies using yum as follows.

#yum install qt5-qtbase.x86_64 qt5-qttools.x86_64 qt5-qttools-devel.x86_64 qt5-qtx11extras.x86_64 qt-x11.x86_64 qt5 -qtwebchannel.x86_64 qt5-qtwebcannel-devel.x86_64 qt5-qtquickcontrols.x86_64 qt5-qttools-static.x86_64 qt5-qtwebchannel-devel.x86_64 qt5-qtx11extras.x86_64 qt5-qtsensors.x86_64 qt-x11.x86_64 qt5-qtlocation.x86_64

2. You cannot install “qt5-qtwebkit-5.6.2-1” from yum repo. You have to download the rpm manually from the below link and install it.

https://centos.pkgs.org/7/epel-x86_64/qt5-qtwebkit-5.6.2-1.el7.x86_64.rpm.html

#rpm -ivh qt5-qtwebkit-5.6.2-1.el7.x86_64.rpm

3.  Download TeamViewer from the official website. Install the rpm as follows.

#rpm -ivh teamviewer_13.1.3026.x86_64.rpm

That’s it. You are now set.

4. Launch team viewer as follows:

#teamviewer &

Start using it.

 

Hope this helps.
