My TemplateVMs have a recurring and unpredictable problem starting dnf. dnf will display no output for a number of minutes and then exit with an error like (not always this)
Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'qubes-vm-r3.2-current' or Error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'fedora' I have the issue about 50% of the time I try to use dnf on a TemplateVM. If the error appears, I usually attempt to troubleshoot for 20 mins before it randomly works, or I give up and decide to try later. Some symptoms/findings: - An AppVM based on the TemplateVM may be able to use dnf at the same time the TemplateVM cannot - Internet access (ie web browsing) is never affected - Allowing all internet access to the TemplateVM usually does not fix the problem - Allowing all internet access and turning off proxy updates usually does not fix the problem - Resetting the TemplateVM usually does not fix the problem - Resetting sys-firewall usually does not fix the problem - Changing the TemplateVM behind sys-firewall usually does not fix the problem - Adding fastestmirror=true to dnf.conf does not fix the problem - Restarting Qubes sometimes fixes the problem I'm using fedora-25 and fedora-25-minimal as my core distributions. Has anyone else come across this problem? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
