2014-07-29 15:25:57.444 jamf[961:2b0b] CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary.



Thanks in advance for any help on this!

Looks like some plist in some application it is scanning under /Applications is poorly-formatted or invalid.

Here's a command line string to look at each plist in /Applications and validate it. You'll have to visually go through the output and find the one that doesn't end with 'OK'.

find /Applications/ -name '*.plist' -exec plutil {} ;

Seconding both responses above if you really want to take care of the issue. I'm not clear on what you'd do with the plists that fail validation; probably repackage if necessary and reinstall?



For what it's worth, I've typically ignored these messages, because there's been no evident effect in our day-to-day operations, either on the user's side or on our management side. They've also pointed to plists in /Library/Receipts instead of inside /Applications.
