I found out some more information regarding qubes-db-dom0.service failure:

symlink /var/run/qub es/qubesdb.sock: No such file or directory
FATAL: server socket initialization failed
qubes-db-dom0.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Failed to start Qubes DB agent.

Is this the only way? No recovery mode? :) Qubes VM Manager is not running 
unfortunetly, so no go for me.

Sorry for misunderstanding, I figured out what I did analysing my bash_history 
file (as I was sure that I haven't experimenting, just followed docummentation):

I upgraded dom0 (following "Installing and using Windows-based AppVMs" doc):

sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-current-testing 
qubes-windows-tools 

and not long after that I upgraded all my VMs from f-24 to f-25. 

I use my laptop for a few weeks puting it into hibernation mode. After restart 
- you know the story. I haven't found anything in bash_history what would 
damage qubes, aside from those updates.

Is it possible to reinstall base system and have my VMs and data not earased 
(like from ISO installer)?

Thanks.

[qubes-users] Failed to start Qubes DB agent after upgrade fedora 24 to 25 (r3.2)

2018-01-10 Thread Pawel G
I upgraded dom0 from fedora-24 to fedora-25 on Qubes r3.2. 

After reboot, I can login, GUI starts, I'm able to open dom0 Terminal window 
etc. but Qubes Manager is not running, I can't start VMs:

"Failed to execute child process "qvm-run" (No such file or directory)."


"journaltcl | grep Fail" shows:

"Failed to start Qubes DB agent", and
"Failed to start Virtualzation daemon".

I tried to restart qubesd (not sure if it's related), but it says that:

"Failed to restart qubesd.service: Unit qubesd.service failed to load: No such 
file or directory".

I can't find any related thread to my problem (here and issues on github). 

Any help would be highly appreciated as I'm smart but unfortunately not too 
bright. I have no idea how to diagnose this problem and how to make my Qubes 
works again. 

Thanks!

Pawel
