Cannot connect to qrexec agent after standalone vm crashes during update

User Support
1

I have a fedora-based standalone VM. I an in-place upgrade on it from fedora 40 to fedora 41 a few weeks ago. After that it worked fine

Then a few days ago it was in the middle of dnf upgrade, and suddenly the VM was off

After that I would get Cannot connect to qrexec agent for 60 seconds, see /var/log/xen/console/guest-<vm-name>.log for details

I tried increasing the timeout to 300s, and telling it not to start resize service automatically, and neither worked.

I have increased the system and private storage size by like 5 gigs, and still didn’t work. Made a clone and tried to start that. Same issue

I tried removing it from memory balancing and that didn’t work either

I look in /var/log/xen/console/guest-<vm-name>.log and I see a whole bunch of Dependency failed for <service> lines, which I do not see in the same logs of another VM that works

Any ideas on how to fix this? I do have the data mostly backed up in the clone I did before upgraded, so its not absolutely critical. But it would be nice to get back into this one
