Qubes enviroment dont launch after update

I left my qubes to update a few templates including dom0 for the night

In the morning after I turned on the machine it turned out that environemnt have some difficulty launching itself

I made a gif
VID_20241105_203853-ezgif.com-optimize
showing what is happening

Check the logs in dom0 using journalctl command to see the specific errors.
Also it seems that your dom0 date/time is incorrect, I’m not sure if this could be related to your problem, but try to set the proper date/time for a test.

Here is journalctl output


I also updated time

I found this
VID_20241105_213313-ezgif.com-optimize

Should i kill those processes maybe?

I dont want to break my system
I dont have backup

Run this command in dom0 terminal:

journalctl -b | cat

Then scroll the terminal window and search for errors.


























I would really appreciate help
I need to fix this bad this time ;×

Have you tried to boot into the previous kernel in grub advanced settings ? Just to see if you can narrow down the cause

Which line in setparams do you recomend me to change and how exactly?

On boot grub screen you’d choose advanced then select an older kernel. Currently I use 6.6.42 due to a kernel issue with my graphics card

Check also status of “qubesd” service: sudo systemctl status qubesd, and if it’s failed, you can get more logs about it using sudo journalctl -b -u qubesd

Choosing previous kernel didnt helped

Here is the output of qubesd status

This looks like some files of qubes-core-dom0 package are missing (at least /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/qubes-*egg_info/entry_points.txt). If that package was part of your recent update, maybe you have it still in cache - in which case, you can try dnf reinstall qubes-core-dom0 to fix the issue.

Oh my god

I am so grateful to all of you guys

Especially to you marmarek
