New in TeamSpeak Server 3.8.0 (Jun 20, 2019)

  • Important: This release requires GNU C library (glibc) 2.17 or later on Linux. If you need to check which version of glibc is installed on your system, you can use `ldd --version`, which usually comes with any glibc installation.
  • Important: Client badge information is now signed to prevent using fake data. Badges in the old format will not be visible on this server.

  • Added: New query commands for adding, removing and listing of server query logins.
  • * queryloginadd => adds new query logins
  • * querylogindel => delete an existing query login
  • * queryloginlist => list the query logins

New in TeamSpeak Server 3.4.0 (Sep 11, 2018)

  • Now you can give your query client a nickname before you select a server and the users on server will no longer see the default user name with current IP. The parameter is optional and without it you get the default nickname when you select a server.
  • Max clients for virtual servers can not be set from clients to zero any longer. Only the ServerQuery is allowed to do this.
  • Connected users that are above the max client limit will be kicked from the server now. This can happen when the number of max clients has been lowered.
  • The client who changed the max available clients will always stay on the server.
  • Example 1: You set max clients to 12 but 32 clients are currently connected then the server will kick 20 other clients.
  • Example 2: You set max clients to 1 but 14 clients are currently connected then the server will kick 13 other clients.
  • Example 3: A ServerQuery sets the max clients to 0 but 13 clients are currently connected then the server will kick these 13 clients.
  • Commands send via plugin (sendPluginCommand) received there own flood protection and user interactions (like talk, mute and move...) will never be blocked by a flooding plugin.

New in TeamSpeak Server 3.3.1 (Sep 1, 2018)

  • Added: snapshots now save and restore the total connection count of clients.
  • Fixed: When you send only whitespace to the server query, it will continue accepting commands now.
  • Fixed: Moved certain ban related log messages from instance log to the server log where they should have been all along.
  • Fixed: The query commands customset and customdelete work with mariadb now.
  • Fixed: In rare cases the server crashed, when a client disconnected from server query system.

New in TeamSpeak Server 3.3.0 (Aug 1, 2018)

  • Added: We are proud to introduce myTeamSpeak integrations for Twitch. With it you can link your Twitch account
  • with myTeamSpeak and configure the Server to give every twitch subscriber and follower a group when he joins the server.
  • It will be taken away automatically, should the user unsubscribe or unfollow again.
  • Added: We added SSH for the server query... that took a while, didn't it?
  • To enable start the server with "query_protocols=raw,ssh", and connect to port 10022.
  • A few points of note:
  • the ssh support comes with new command line parameters, see doc/server_quickstart.txt for more information.
  • we also added history, tab-completion and keyboard shortcuts like killing, yanking and searching.
  • there is a maximum of 4096 characters per input line. We might fix that in a later version.
  • Bot or admin tools connecting over ssh should not allocate a PTY, giving access to the good old query, just encrypted - and without the 4096 characters limit per input line.
  • We overhauled server query flooding. It is now more forgiving, allowing for naive implementations that still run fast.
  • Added: The new commandline option 'serverquerydocs_path' allows to override where the server is looking for the
  • serverquerydocs directory. Not particularly interesting we know, but it allows us to fix the 'help' command
  • in docker images, finally.
  • Fixed: We added a fix for those annoying instance check errors on Windows. Might not catch all cases though, keep those reports coming.
  • Fixed: The channel_needed_subscribe_power finally shows the actual power needed to subscribe to a channel, and not just 0.
  • Fixed: As some have already noted, the last release broke client_lastconnected, so we unbroke it for this release.

New in TeamSpeak Server 3.2.0 (May 14, 2018)

  • Added:
  • In light of the recent attacks that have been discovered, we took a closer look to make sure we haven't missed anything and prevent some possible future attacks.
  • We have enabled the use of Unicode emojis, we hope to see some creative use on your servers.
  • This works in all places where the server deals with text, nicknames, channel names, chat etc.
  • Query commands customset and customdelete for custom client properties, making those just so much more usable.
  • The query commands serverstop and serverprocessstop now have a new optional parameter to tell your users why it's stopping. No more hardcoded message.
  • Changed:
  • Improved regex matching in the ban manager, it now properly handles UTF-8 characters.Old style regex matching like .*(😈).* was actually a bug and is not supported anymore. Sorry but you have to change those to use the correct regex escape sequence, for the example above it would be .*(uD83DuDE08).*
  • The server does not report all slots filled when only reserved slots are left.
  • Fixed:
  • When using a privilege key the custom values of the user are not overwritten anymore.
  • At some point we apparently removed logging of file deletions. It's back now.
  • Successful server query logins were logged regardless of query logging settings, sorry about that spam.

New in TeamSpeak Server 3.1.0 (Feb 15, 2018)

  • Before you run the teamspeak 3 server it is required that you agree to our license. This license can be found in the file "license.txt" or "LICENSE" (depending on your platform), which is located in the same location as the ts3server binary (the main folder). If, after reading it, you agree to the license, this can be indicated in one of three ways.
  • These are:
  • 1: Create a file called ".ts3server_license_accepted" in the current working directory. The contents of this file are irrelevant and can be empty. For example on linux do: touch .ts3server_license_accepted
  • 2: Start the ts3server with the commandline parameter "license_accepted" set to 1. For example: ts3server license_accepted=1
  • 3: Set the OS environment variable TS3SERVER_LICENSE to "accept". For example on Windows: set TS3SERVER_LICENSE=accept
  • New accounting subsystem. Please read accounting.txt in the docs folder.
  • Windows xp and vista support has been dropped.
  • Fixed a bug where a channel could be created with a password without the needed permission.
  • Fixed some performance issues when copying a server group
  • Accounting server Documentation updated
  • New property 'virtualserver_nickname' allowing to add the server nickname into the server settings. Changes to the new property are only possible by users with the new 'virtualserver_nickname' permission.
  • New parameter 'wait_until_ready' in ts3db_mariadb.ini that specifies in seconds how long the ts3server should wait for the database to become available.
  • Released under new license. See accompanying license file.

New in TeamSpeak Server 3.0.13.8 (Jul 20, 2017)

  • Server Query connections now have a combined maximum buffer size. When this limit is exceeded, the connection using the most memory is closed. The buffer size is controlled by the command line variable "query_buffer_mb". The default is 20, which means the maximum amount of buffered data is 20 megabyte. The minimum is 1 megabyte. Make sure to only enter positive integer numbers
  • here.
  • Connecting to the server query port, now counts as 1 command, with regard to flood protection.
  • Fix client able to connect with no nickname

  • "Error opening file: No such file or directory" message now includes filename
  • Fixed server crash when ipv6 client connects while using MariaDB (or MySQL) server
  • Database plugins are now checked more thoroughly at server startup
  • To fix the problem with MariaDB, the server needs to alter columns in the client and bindings
  • table. For large databases, this can take a while. It is recommended that all ts3servers that use
  • the same database, are stopped and then one new ts3server is started first which does the update
  • After this, the other instances can be started too

New in TeamSpeak Server 3.0.13.3 (Sep 12, 2016)

This is to support exotic client routing configurations like tcp load balancers.
  • fixed incorrect filetransfer port reported in instanceinfo
  • binding voice to the any address (0.0.0.0 / 0::0), which is the default behaviour of the server, now supports clients connecting to all addresses instead of just the default ip of the network interface.
  • fixed assertion in puzzle feature
  • fixed virtual server log and bindinglist for voice showing multiple senseless bindings
  • file transfer now only allows an idle time of 2 seconds after connect
  • new file transfer implementation
  • updated sqlite to 3.11.1
