I am trying to get the official MS Teams application to run on my Ubuntu 20.04 machine. No matter how I install it, it will not display any sort of window when ran normally (i.e. clicking the icon in Applications, running teams
if installed with apt, or running snap run teams
if installed with snap).
When I run snap run teams
, I get this error: 2022/02/18 10:15:43.002794 cmd_run.go:1039: WARNING: cannot start document portal: Expected portal at "/run/user/197001104/doc", got "/home/username/.cache/doc"
When installed with apt and I run teams
, I get no output and the process ends immediately.
The only way I am ever able to get a window to display is if I install with snap, snap install teams
, then run it with snap run --trace-exec teams
. Then it works as expected.
When not ran with snap run --trace-exec teams
, I can see several processes running when I check ps aux | grep teams
. These never close themselves and require a kill <PID>
to exit.
I have tried the following versions with apt/dpkg:
1.4.00.26453
1.3.00.16851
1.2.00.32451
and the version snap installs is:
1.4.00.26453
I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, clearing my cache using the following script, and any combination of the three.
