logmein-hamachi daemon does not work - openSUSE 13.1

Good evening,

A couple of days ago I installed logmein-hamachi from the official site and everything worked fine.

However today it has not worked at all. I have browsed the forum and searched the internet all day but nothing I have tried has worked.

This is what I see in the terminal:

andradejose@linux-crc2:~> hamachi ?
Hamachi does not seem to be running.
Run '/etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi start' to start daemon.
andradejose@linux-crc2:~> sudo /etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi start
root's password:
redirecting to systemctl start logmein-hamachi.service
andradejose@linux-crc2:~> hamachi ?
Hamachi does not seem to be running.
Run '/etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi start' to start daemon.
andradejose@linux-crc2:~> sudo systemctl start logmein-hamachi.service
andradejose@linux-crc2:~> hamachi ?
Hamachi does not seem to be running.
Run '/etc/init.d/logmein-hamachi start' to start daemon.
andradejose@linux-crc2:~>

Is anyone able to help? I don’t know what to try next.

I am new to openSUSE so am not familiar with the distribution.

Hi
Try changing to root user and checking the status;


su -
systemctl status logmein-hamachi.service

This should provide some additional information on to why it’s not starting.

Hi
They don’t have an updated version to download do they? I wonder if something has changed with the openssl updates of late?

No updated version.

Is this something I can check on my system?

Thank you,

José

Hi
No, wherever you downloaded the application from, have you checked to see if there is an update?

Yes but no updated version.

Could it be something to do with KDE? Could I have changed some settings etc…

If so then I may install the XFCE version to see if it works.

Hi
Not sure whether the desktop environment would have an affect, maybe
ask in their forums?
