I have had cases when it appears that QubesManager appears like it will not start, but the reason is because it sees another one running so holds off (but sticks around). The other instance is windowless and usually wedged somehow (typically on libvirt--I'm not a big fan of that layer). As root, do a "ps ax | grep qubes-manager" to find the running process (a python process). kill (or kill -9 if needed) that process #. All of them, if there's more than one. Then re-run qubes-manager with "qubes-manager". If libvirtd is being stupid, a "sudo systemctl restart libvirtd". That often wakes up a non-responsive system for me. (If that's the problem, kill qubes-manager, restart libvirtd, then run qubes-manager.) -JJ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I did that already, so... That's the point - I can't run any command, cause vm-manager (and the process itself) seems to do not run, "dnf remove" reports of not-existing packets (cant match the arguments "qubes-template-fedora-24" and so on..

There are two supported ways: 1. In Qubes Manager, right click on the TemplateVM -> "Remove VM" Or, if the template cannot be removed in this way because it's RPM-managed: 2.

[qubes-users] Qubes-manager refuses to launch
Hi there! Got a problem with a qubes-manager after updating and removing templateVM. Upgrading from fedora-24 to fedora-25 was successful, but I couldn't remove TVM fedora-24, because TVM was used by some AppVm as manager said (and it's not true, I changed default template as well as templates in any AppVms). I removed whole record in /var/lib/qubes/qubes.xml and now vm manager gives me import error (Unknown template with QID:x) or "Error: 2, '\xd0\xd9\.. ..\xb0')..." if I add a line manually (just copy line of another TVM and change QID, name, etc.., but I guess it's wrong, while that line requires uuid or smth else to be correct, and what I can't know).
