I have installed GNOME GUI in my Ubuntu server (Digital Ocean). Now I need to access the GUI. I use putty to connect but Putty Is only used as a terminal (SSH) there are no GUI options on it. so I thought I will use Teamviewer to access GUI.

As I told before, I don't have any option or service to directly start and use TeamViewer.(There is no KVM or console) so I used this commands to install Teamviewer via terminal.

wget https://download.teamviewer.com/download/linux/teamviewer_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i teamviewer_amd64.deb

And installed Teamviewer

Now I need to open TeamViewer via terminal and print user id and password of Teamviewer in the terminal so that I can connect

Alternately, You can suggest any other options to connect to the desktop (GUI). I tried VNC and XRDP, both are not working.

I did not tried this but you can try to use SSH X or Y to run TeamViewer via X11 forwarding:

ssh -X user@host teamviewer

or 

ssh -Y user@host teamviewer
