Juniper networks VPN

I tried the fix but I received the following error message:

mkdir: /Applications/Network: File exists
mkdir: Connect.app/Contents: No such file or directory

Any idea what I did wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like you may have missed the quotes around the path in the command:

sudo mkdir '/Applications/Network Connect.app/Contents/Frameworks'


Those little quotes matter in this case since there is a space in the path.

Bernard,
That worked! Thanks for your help 🙂

Hello.

I also get the No such file or directory error - but I think it's because I don't actually use a program to connect to our work's VPN? I go to a website (using Safari only) and log in there. Ever since upgrading to Snow Leopard, I get the error about restarting the browser and can't connect which means I can't remote desktop into work.

Please help me not get fired.

Thanks!!

Here's what I got. Does this look right?

Same issue that smithg13 had in that first try. You are missing the single-quote from the mkdir line.

You said:


mkdir /Applications/Network Connect.app/Contents/Frameworks


The command should include the single-quotes (or apstrophe's) like this:


mkdir '/Applications/Network Connect.app/Contents/Frameworks'



The problem is that there is a space in "Network Connect", so the mkdir command thinks you're trying to give it two paths, the one before the space, and the one after the space: "/Applications/Network" and "Connect.app/Contents/Frameworks"

Yup, the apostrophes worked. If I had turned to page two I would have seen the note about those.



Thank you very much to everyone who helped out! Very much appreciated!



Take care



Jim

You rock joebellas. This worked for me! Thakns!

Hi - I got the following pop up window when logging into Juniper Secure App Manager (reads - Could not launch. Please restart the web browser and try again.)

I've been trying to follow the steps in this post.

First, I don't know what version I have, the tech guy at work says it's: 6.2R3-1 (build 13687)
Assuming it's version 6.2.0?? They were not really sure...

Through terminal, I was only able to get through the first step and got the following unknown file message...

Can someone help me?

Thanks

this worked for me as well, but i also had to abandon attaching to the VPN through my web browser as i always had before and switch to launching Network Connect directly. anyone scratching their heads over mysterious java-related errors about certificates when trying to launch Network Connect from a browser might be able to save themselves some time by giving this a try.

The quotes worked for me also. Thank you!

I'm having the same problem as AppleTree...i.e. I don't even have the local directory under /usr. Network Connect doesn't even install from the website, I an error that it could not launch (right after the download occurs) and to restart my browser and retry again. In the logs I see this:

...for those of you that were able to get this to work, were you able to successfully install Network Connect from the browser first?

Hi, I have the same problem. Since I clean-installed Snow Leopard to my MBPro, even downloading network connect at Safari fails. The Safari browswer shows error like "restart browswer and try again...".

At that time, directories like /usr/local/juniper do not exist. The error above occurs before Network Connect gets installed under /usr/local/juniper.

And when the Safari shows the error above, /var/log/system.log says

and when I do "file /Users/sampleuser/Library/Java/Extensions/libJNPRAuthKit", it says

=====

I confirmed that my Snow Leopard is running with kernel 32 bit mode.
So, "Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386" should work though...

I am also running into this issue,

before the sudo workaround, i had tried to remove all Juniper references hoping a reinstall would fix, it made it worse. now i am getting the same issue as slash5234 and others.

I have created another thread for those of us with Network Connect not installing or reinstalling at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2136596

Thanks for your help
