How do I cleanly remove old Juniper Pulse installation from Mac OSX? The Console application on the Mac is continuously throwing log messages presumably because fragments of a previous install are still in place. I have tried Googling around for a solution and using grep to search through plist files for obvious strings. No luck so far.

Getting recurring error messages per the below:

May 26 19:12:53 MacBook-Pro com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (net.juniper.AccessService[73727]): Service could not initialize: Unable to set current working directory. error = 2: No such file or directory, path = /Applications/Junos Pulse.app/Contents/Plugins/JUNS: 16G2136: xpcproxy + 11215 [1386][C3C8A771-3847-30E4-BE12-7941C4A2924D]: 0x2
May 26 19:12:53 MacBook-Pro com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (net.juniper.AccessService): Service only ran for 0 seconds. Pushing respawn out by 10 seconds.
First you will have to locate where Juniper installed the net.juniper.AccessService daemon.

Here is a shell script made without a real case to test it (in blind mode), then beware of any errors and report them in comments so I will be able to fix it.

_plist1="net.juniper.AccessService.plist"
_plist2="net.juniper.UninstallPulse.plist"

export _plist1 _plist2

for _dir in /Library/LaunchDaemons /System/Library/LaunchDaemons ; do
    cd ${_dir}

    # check if the .plist is in this directory

    if [ -f ${_plist1} -o -f ${_plist2} ] ; then
        echo "found in ${_dir}"
        launchctl unload -w ${_plist1}
        launchctl unload -w ${_plist2}
        rm -i ${_plist1} ${_plist2}
    fi
done



Run this script without root priviledges.
Check that the echo display the plist file is found in one of the 2 directories and the launchctl command issue an error because you don't
have priviledge to stop this daemon.
If you didn't get any unexpected error message, then

switch to root user:

/usr/bin/sudo -s


run this small script once more
and answer y to the rm command to definetely remove the Juiper daemon.

Then exit root user:

exit
