Hi All,
I have installed Sonicwall Netextender 6.0.719
Whenever I try to connect the VPN it throws an error "Connection Failed. Check for log details"

I am using Mac OS X Yosemite version 10.10.5

Please help me fix this issue if anyone has come across with the same error.

1. OS X Yosemite version 10.10.5
2. MacBook Air 11inch - i5, 4 GB
3. Don't think any specific, because it worked initially for couple of days

I am trying to check if I have anything newly installed recently, which must have caused this error.
Will try to provide as much as info I can share, so that the problem is more understandable.

Thanks in advance !!

Doesn't answer my question.What are the requirements? 10.6? 10.11? Certain amount of memory? Does your computer meet these requirements?
Is there more to the logs? Something that might shed some light as to the actual problem?

My bad Craig..

Prerequisites in order to use NetExtender:
•MacOS 10.4 and higher
•Java 1.4 and higher
•Both PowerPC and Intel Macs are supported.

My Mac configuration is:
•Mac OS X Yosemite version 10.10.5
•Java 8 Update 65
•Intel Core i5 Processer

It meets the requirements

Logs - unfortunately these are the only logs I can see.. It has even stopped logging after 10/20.. I dont see any recent log history

Ok, possibilities....
And I'm no expert and have never used it.
In no particular order.

It may not be updated for Yosemite.
Network problems. See here: http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Apple_Operating_Systems/Q_27526922.html
Something else is set up wrong and is disturbing it. Eg. network settings.
User error (nothing personal).
Latest version of Java. Some applications only work with one version, not necessarily the latest version. It's hard coded in.
