Debian 7 Teamspeak Server: How to install Teamspeak 3 server with autostart
I have not tested this Teamspeak 3 (ts3 server) server install with auto start with Ubuntu. But it shouldn't be to different as Ubuntu is built on Debian.
How to install Teamspeak 3 with autostart on a Debian 7 server. Written instructions and download link can be found here: http://soltveit.org/?p=503
Copied from my webpage at the link above:
Here is a short description on how to install Teamspeak 3 in a safe manner on a Debian server. And how to auto start your Teamspeak 3 server, in case of restart or reboots.
To find your version, click here to go to the official Teamspeak 3 download page.
(I assume you already root or sudo in this example)
First step: Download, extract and put the files in a suitable location.
In this example I will use the current valid 64 bit linux Teamspeak 3 server. It might not be the latest when you read this. But I will try to update the version number from time to time.
wget http://dl.4players.de/ts/releases/3.0...
Extract the files and move them to a suitable location. In this case we will move them to /usr/local/teamspeak3/
tar -zxvf teamspeak3-server_linux-amd64-3.0.11.2.tar.gz
mv teamspeak3-server_linux-amd64/ /usr/local/teamspeak3
Second step: Create an account to run Teamspeak 3 on, and change owner for the files.
adduser -disabled-login teamspeak3
Then just confirm the user info.
We now need to change ownership of the files to the teamspeak 3 account.
chown -R teamspeak3:teamspeak3 /usr/local/teamspeak3
Third step: Make a symbolic link and put the script into startup.
To make a symbolic link to our startup script.
ln -s /usr/local/teamspeak3/ts3server_startscript.sh /etc/init.d/teamspeak3
And lets finaly put it into startup.
update-rc.d teamspeak3 defaults
Your Teamspeak 3 server is now ready for action. When you start the server for the first time, it will print out some pretty important information. Make sure you copy that and save it. If not, you will have to re-install it. It will only print it once. So lets start it.
service teamspeak3 start
