HOWTO: TeamSpeak (with teamspeak:// links!)

[JConnell]

Download the linux client from the TeamSpeak website

user@ubuntu:~ $ tar -jxf ts2_client_rc2_2032.tar.bz2
user@ubuntu:~ $ cd ts2_client_rc2_2032
user@ubuntu:~ $ sudo chmod 755 setup.sh
user@ubuntu:~ $ sudo sh setup.sh

Install to: /opt/TeamSpeak2RC2 (Should be the default)

user@ubuntu:~ $ sudo ln -s /opt/TeamSpeak2RC2/TeamSpeak /usr/bin/
user@ubuntu:~ $ TeamSpeak

Congratulations, TeamSpeak is now installed!



If you want to open "teamspeak://" links with firefox:

Launch firefox and type about:config in the address bar

Right-click and select New->String
Name: "network.protocol-handler.app.teamspeak"
Value: "TeamSpeak"

Right-click and select New->Boolean
Name: network.protocol-handler.external.teamspeak
Value: "true"

Now you can open teamspeak:// links, which will automaticly launch TeamSpeak and connect to the specified server when you click them!

Getting an error on when I try and run the installer binary.
Any suggestions?

user@ubuntu:~/ts2_client_rc2_2032$ sudo sh setup.sh
setup.sh: line 19: setup.data/installer/installer: cannot execute binary file

Try what was first shown above. I had problems with TeamSpeak after I used AutoMatix to install some software. I had to re-install TeamSpeak twice to get it to work. I followed the information at the begining of the post.

I have tried installing it multiple ways & i just cant get the Autoinstall to work or the manual install either, i am abit of a ubuntu n00b so maybe its something silly.

I going to paste what i have tried, i have also had a mate SSH in & look at it, thou he's much more Gentoo orientated than ubuntu & he was lost too.

First of all i will show you the Auto Installation problem...

"USER@COMPUTER:~/Desktop/teamspeak$ sudo sh setup.sh
setup.sh: 14: Syntax error: Bad substitution"

After trying loads of different things the *automated* way i gave up & thought i would install it the manual way, so i have copied the contents of "/image/" to "/opt/teamspeak" then edited the teamspeak file so it look like...

"#!/bin/sh
#
# This starup script will set the correct library path
# and then startup the teamspeak binary.
#

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/teamspeak:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/opt/teamspeak/TeamSpeak.bin $*"

Then when i try to run it i get...


"USER@COMPUTER:~$ cd /opt/teamspeak
USER@COMPUTER:/opt/teamspeak$ ./TeamSpeak
./TeamSpeak: 8: /opt/teamspeak/TeamSpeak.bin: not found
USER@COMPUTER:/opt/teamspeak$ sudo ./TeamSpeak
./TeamSpeak: 8: /opt/teamspeak/TeamSpeak.bin: not found"

At this point i would forgive you for thinking i was abit useless and was in the wrong folder or something of the like so to prove otherwise...

"USER@COMPUTER:/opt/teamspeak$ ls
clicense.txt libborqt-6.9-qt2.3.so manual TeamSpeak
client_sdk libHVDI.so.0.8.0 Readme.txt TeamSpeak~
icon.xpm libspeex.so.1.0.0 sounds TeamSpeak.bin"

I have all the correct permissions have tried all steps as "USER/ROOT/SUDO" all of which give me the same errors.
So i am completely lost, any advise would be appreciated.

remove the sh. just do "sudo setup.sh"
