TheMgfeedthebeast commented 1 year ago

oh never mind you just have to run: sudo zerotier-gui

tralph3 commented 1 year ago

You shouldn't run it with root privileges. If running as root solved it, then it most likely means the auth token setup is broken. Can you run it without sudo on a terminal and paste the output here?

It does not give any output just does not open seems to not need root any more tho

Hi Ralph, Just installed on a new machine running Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS and I am running into some issues. Here is a copy of the terminal commands and result:

I managed to run it in terminal at /usr/bin with command python3 zerotier-gui This allowed me to follow the normal steps to get your GUI working and to join a network.

NOTE: after the initial install Zerotier does not show up in the "show Applications" As of now the only way I can get the GUI up and running is to use the python3 zerotier-gui command.

Any help I can offer just let me know/Gerry
