(Redirected from TeamSpeak3-Server)

From Wikipedia:TeamSpeak:

TeamSpeak is proprietary Voice over IP software that allows computer users to speak on a chat channel with fellow computer users, much like a telephone conference call.

Installation

Client

Install the teamspeak3 package.

Server

Install the teamspeak3-server package.

Server configuration and startup

Configuration

  • You can configure the TeamSpeak server. If you are using systemd, please check /usr/share/doc/teamspeak3-server/doc/server_quickstart.md for all available command line parameters.
  • If you possess a license file please copy it to /var/lib/teamspeak3-server/licensekey.dat.

First startup

With the first startup TeamSpeak creates the SQLite database at /var/lib/teamspeak3-server/ts3server.sqlitedb and starts logging its standard output in files in: /var/log/teamspeak3-server/. Teamspeak also creates the first ServerQuery administration account (the superuser) and the first virtual server including a privilege key for the server administrator of this virtual server. The privilege key is only displayed once on standard output.

  • Scan the output for the privilege key:
Example output:

  • The privilege key is what token is equal to.
  • Alternatively, you can navigate to the logs directory for teamspeak3-server and read the output log directly. (This is a persistent file and will still have the first startup output here even if you have restarted the server):
# cd /var/log/teamspeak3-server
# cat ts3server_*.log

Open up a Teamspeak 3 client, connect to the server and copy and paste the privilege key into the client popup.

Re-Initialising Teamspeak

If you have used the initial privilege key and have lost server permissions (e.g. your teamspeak 3 client with superadmin rights was uninstalled) you will have to start from scratch.

Warning: These steps delete your current configured TeamSpeak servers, your users, permissions and all settings.
  • Stop teamspeak3-server.service.
  • Remove /var/lib/teamspeak3-server/ts3server.sqlitedb:
    $ rm /var/lib/teamspeak3-server/ts3server.sqlitedb
  • Clear /var/log/teamspeak3-server/:
    # rm /var/log/teamspeak3-server/*.log
  • Now follow the same instructions for a first time setup.

Starting Teamspeak with disabled IPv6 stack

When booting your system with the ipv6.disable=1 kernel parameter to disable the IPv6 stack, Teamspeak will not be able to start with the default configuration. Edit /etc/teamspeak3-server.ini to change the listening IPs.

/etc/teamspeak3-server.ini
# query_ip=0.0.0.0, ::
query_ip=0.0.0.0
