Thank you so much! Same here, I hate things automatically starting but I guess with this one, we’ll have to wait!
This worked for me! thank you!
OpenVPN, nor any other spelling, does not exist in /Library/Application Support
find / -name '*openvpn*' also finds no file matching the pattern openvpn_*uniq*.log
the closest I can get you is:

same here. it’s pretty annoying. Anybody managed to fix this bug for good?
for me it returns
Unload failed: 5: Input/output error
Try running \launchctl bootout` as root for richer errors.`
u/gigu85 u/ObtuseGoose3 any help?
i have latest macos
Thank you! I am saving this; ever since I have updated to macOS Sequoia (More like SeqoyCRAPia) I have had issues using Microsoft RDP (Windows App) to access remote desktops, OpenVPN, and firewall issues for no reason…
Working in 2024, thanks.
Boom! Worked perfectly!
Maybe my fix could help you?
After just running 3. and then 4. without restarting, the VPN connects, but then no websites load anymore. I also tried running 1. without the sudo, which gave the Warning:
Warning: Expecting a LaunchAgents path since the command was ran as user. Got LaunchDaemons instead.
When running ps auxww | grep ovpnagent I get two processes: The one I expect like in 4. and another process called grep ovpnagent owned by ininjanic.
Yo tengo el mismo problema a pesar de que estoy dentro del directorio del open vpn no funciona el comando. Pero lo que si me funciono es ejecutar el comando 3 y 4, y no reinicie la computadora, porque este proceso /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openvpn.client.plist que estas cargando se borra. Ahi si funciona la vpn.
Thanks a lot man!!! You solved my problem!!
You can run agent binary directly via terminal:
/Library/Frameworks/OpenVPNConnect.framework/Versions/Current/usr/sbin/ovpnagent
( or exactly path in your cat /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.openvpn.client.plist ). There is maybe sudo su required before
To run it automatically - try uninstall openvpn connect with their binary Uninstall OpenVPN Connect in apps OpenVPN Connect folder and install fresh version - it works for me
It worked, I just ran 3 & 4. thank you very much.
I tried every command it didnt work then i tried insecure mode that is not recommendedfrom the. Gui app it worked, i wish i knew the parameters to use it on terminal too
I have tried running it directly like u/Illustrious_Sky8939 suggested and this worked, I then discovered that I had not allowed the openvpn client to run in the background, so the “allow in the background” in “login items” had not been turned on for the openvpn client. This then fixed my issue.
Fixed my issue thank you!
