Junos Pulse broken El Capitan beta 2

Same here. 😟 Any workaround?

I've been trying for a while tonight to get it to work again.

The tray icon states that Junos Pulse is "Turned Off" however I can open the connection dialog which is blank.

So trying to add a new connection results in an error message:

Failed to connect to the Juniper Unified Network Service.

Checking the underlying service - seems to be loaded:

launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/net.juniper.pulsetray.plist

/Library/LaunchAgents/net.juniper.pulsetray.plist: service already loaded

There is an error being caught in the system log over and over again:

6/23/15 10:59:35.511 PM PulseTray[1058]: Attempting to deallocate <NSMachPort: 0x101ff40> that has not had -invalidate called on it. Breakpoint on _NSPortError debug.

The Juniper debuglog.log file is filling up with various signature check failures:

Doesn't seem like that would lead to a workaround sadly. Guessing something in beta 2 has changed some security code and Junos isn't yet handling it.

What is your Junos Pulse version? Mine is 5.0.5.

Same issues for me. Worked in Beta 1, not in Beta 2. I'm using Junos Pulse 5.0.4.

Tried turning off some of the Java security features but my random attempts there failed. Hope someone figures this one out

I guess we need to wait until Apple or Juniper fixes it, whichever comes first.

Does anyone know how to set up the VPN directly through Mac OS network preferences to have an equivalent to Junos Pulse? Some say it might be possible...

There is a workaround discussed over on the Junper forum. I can confirm that it works for me too.

follow the workaround steps, it works for me. The problem is certificate!!!!

This is NOT working on the latest beta (15A226f). I have it trusted in the System and System Root. Thoughts?

Same here - the latest beta, the Cert fix added, Pulse still unhappy.
