Hello everybody,
My gui updater alerted me to an issue when I tried updating my templateVMs today. After I started it up and updated my qubes, it notified me that whonix-gw-16 was successfully updated, but whonix-ws-16 failed. Found below is the relevant part of the log (scroll to see entire part):
Updating whonix-ws-16
Error on updating whonix-ws-16: Command '['sudo', 'qubesctl', '--skip-dom0', '--targets=whonix-ws-16', '--show-output', 'state.sls', 'update.qubes-vm']' returned non-zero exit status 20.

So I assume, from two segments of the log copied again below, that one part of the update succeeded but the other part failed? Or that the actual update was successful but only the status notification failed?

I’m still not entirely sure what went wrong here. I’m not used to reading through log files so any help/advice/corrections would be greatly appreciated.
If it helps, I also enabled the “Enable updates for qubes without known available updates.” checkbox in order to update the whonix qubes, which would’ve otherwise been greyed out in the updater.
