Haguichi says "error connecting"

Hi Brandon,

What is the output when you run "sudo service logmein-hamachi restart && sleep 2 && hamachi login"?

So I actually decided to reset Ubuntu, I'm hoping that works. If it does not work still I will post back on here.

So I reset Ubuntu, and nothing happened... I tried that command, and it just kinda sits there, nothing happens.

How about starting the service using "sudo /etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi restart", does that result in any output?

Btw: What version of Ubuntu do you have?

Here is the result "darkvoltagebca@Secondary:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi restart
[sudo] password for darkvoltagebca:
Restarting LogMeIn Hamachi VPN tunneling engine logmein-hamachihamachid: no process found

starting - success"

Still no luck...

16.04 LTS

Here's one more thing, every time I press the power button in haguichi, a prompt pops up saying "Authentication is needed to run '/bin/systemctl' as the superuser" I type in my password, and it still says error connecting.

It seemed like the restart using "sudo /etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi restart" was successful as it states "starting - success" at the end... The message is "hamachid: no process found" is just from stopping the old process, which isn't there as expected.

What's the output if you run the command "hamachi" after that restart?

Here is the output "darkvoltagebca@Secondary:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi start
Starting LogMeIn Hamachi VPN tunneling engine logmein-hamachialready running

starting - success"

It still isn't working, unfortunately.

One more thing, every time I restart the computer and log in, a window pops up saying "Sorry, Ubuntu 16.04 has experienced an internal error." I click show details, and it says that the executable path is /opt/logmein-hamachi/bin/hamachid. It says that the problem type is a crash, and the there's a category labeled Title that says "hamachid crashed with SIGSEGV in_IO_vfscanf_internal()" Hopefully this helps in some way.

Sorry, I meant the output for literally just the command "hamachi" after the service is started.

Or put in a single line: "sudo /etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi start && sleep 2 && hamachi"

The hamachi command should either output the client version, status, etc or report the reason why it cannot (no permission or deamon not running).

Also, please make sure you have installed the latest Hamachi version (2.1.0.165 or 2.1.0.174) compatible with Ubuntu 16.04 installed. You can download the DEB package for the latest version from here: https://www.vpn.net/linux

Here - "darkvoltagebca@Secondary:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi start && sleep 2 && hamachi
Starting LogMeIn Hamachi VPN tunneling engine logmein-hamachialready running

starting - success
Hamachi does not seem to be running.
Run '/etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi start' to start daemon."

Latest version (2.1.0.174) is installed.

Thanks. Seems that the service was not started successfully or that the daemon had already crashed. You can try digging into the hamachi log file (/var/lib/logmein-hamachi/h2-engine.log) to see if there are any clues for the reason why.

Otherwise you can reinstall hamachi and hope that this will fix the problem (it does execute some extra triggers that might help):
sudo apt install --reinstall ~/Downloads/logmein-hamachi_2.1.0.174-1_amd64.deb

No luck with reinstalling, here are lines from the log:

Sorry I wasn't able to respond to this earlier, but that solved my problem! Thanks!

Thanks Stephen Brandt, that solved my question.

Great it's solved. Out of curiosity, what was the reason you had disabled IPv6?

I don't remember disabling IPv6, the only time I messed with network settings was when my network wasn't working, but I don't remember disabling it... Oh well, not a big deal now.

Thanks all i had the same problem and it was solved, Thanks Guys :-)
