Gerowen Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 On my computer (Debian) Teamviewer logs and settings are saved in the following location(s): Teamviewer 6 $HOME/.teamviewer/6 Teamviewer 7 $HOME/.teamviewer/7 Your home folder is full of hidden folders for user specific settings for all of your software. Since most software is ran as you, and not root, you don't have write access to the installation location of the software or /var/log, so a .software folder is created in your home folder. Kind of like the hidden folder C:\Users\username\AppData in Windows. In Linux/Unix, any folder or filename that begins with a period is hidden from view. If you check the option to "Show hidden files and folders" in whatever file browser you're using, and then go to your home folder, you'll see a ton of hidden folders with personalized settings for all of the software you've ever ran under your username.

Gerowen Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 My log files are kept in $HOME/.teamviewer/7/logfiles. As far as I know, nothing is stored in /var/log for Teamviewer on Linux. Since it looks like you're using Teamviewer 6, there's an identical directory for version 6, $HOME/.teamviewer/7/logfiles . These folders are symbolic links to other locations that are several layers deep, but browsing to them will get you to your log files.
