Arch Linux User Repository

If you want to use old pulse-secure client 9.1r9, please download the following package.

The rewritten pulse-secure client requires a service called 'pulsesecure'. Please enable and start the service before running the client.

@chiwanpark I'm afraid the new UI should be only on the Windows client. I don't see that there are changes at the moment in the linux client

@thecrow I've packaged and installed 22.2.R1 build 1295, but UI seems not be changed (see https://imgur.com/a/GcjmbLl). Could you find the package (in RPM format) with new UI?

It hangs on

dsOpenSSL Start - dsENGINE_register_ECDSA
dsOpenSSL End - dsENGINE_register_ECDSA

Press Ctrl+c to Stop VPN Connection....

Status: Connect requested

Any ideas how to debug this?

Pulse Secure Client is re-branded as Ivanti Secure Access Client. The release numbering is updated to 22.RX. Complete UX rebranding and the UI upgrade is implemented. There is also an option to switch between the Classic UI and New-UI to maintain user experience. The Pulse Secure client icon is replaced by Ivanti Secure Access Client icon

For saved connections in pulseUI to not disappear when the pulsesecure service restarts, mkdir -p /var/lib/pulsesecure/pulse seems to work.

I have a problem on the latest (9.1r15.0_b15819-2) and older versions : I start the pulsesecure service, and try to run the /opt/pulsesecure/bin/pulseUI command, and it's stuck at

dsOpenSSL Start - dsENGINE_register_ECDSA
dsOpenSSL End - dsENGINE_register_ECDSA

and it hangs there. If I try to press Ctrl + C to cancel it, the UI launches, but it looks like it doesn't detect the running service (lots of DBUS api call failed with code: 2 - message:GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name net.psecure.pulse was not provided by any .service files error messages, and I can't connect.

What's weird is that if I stop the service and try to run the pulseUI program, it goes straight to the "missing service" error :

dsOpenSSL Start - dsENGINE_register_ECDSA
dsOpenSSL End - dsENGINE_register_ECDSA
DBUS api call failed with code: 2 - message:GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name net.psecure.pulse was not provided by any .service files 
DBUS api call failed with code: 2 - message:GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name net.psecure.pulse was not provided by any .service files 

journalctl -u pulsesecure.service -f doesn't show anything wrong, and the pulselauncher command behaves the same...

Any idea ?

It doesn't save my connections. Every time I restart it I have to create my connections again. Is there anything that I am missing?

Thanks, it works now.

@mso I've updated the package to ignore SSL certificate validation. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Note that skipping SSL validation is insecure. If you don't want skip the validation, remove the second line of PKGBUILD file.

DLAGENTS=("https::/usr/bin/curl -k -o %o %u")

Under Manjaro cannot update to 9.1r15 since curl complains about invalid SSL ceritificate when donwloading the following file: https://webdev.web3.technion.ac.il/docs/cis/public/ssl-vpn/v.9.1R15.0/ps-pulse-linux-9.1r15.0-b15819-64bit-installer.rpm

Error output: curl: (60) SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate

Does this work for you?

Note in case it may help someone: I managed to skip the error by manually downloading the rpm file to my local file system and editing the build file pointing the download destination to my local file: source_x86_64=("file://<MY_LOCAL_PATH>") (Replace <MY_LOCAL_PATH> with the path you downloaded the file to)
