Above permissions looks ok - if the file is owned by your user, being group writable does not matter. Maybe it was owned by root during previous qvm-create-default-dvm call, but now is ok? - -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

I changed this with chmod 664 volatile.img but on running qvm-create-default-vm the permissions are reset to their earlier state - and volatile.img is not group-writeable. Should people on R3.1 just chmod 664 volatile.img right after recreating the DVM? Thanks Alex -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

How to troubleshoot? I believe you've hit this issue: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2200 The issue is fixed in R3.2, but it hasn't been yet backported to R3.1... For now, make sure that files in /var/lib/qubes/appvms/fedora-23-dvm (or other - depending on what template you use for DispVM) are owned by your user. Then recreate DispVM savefile with qvm-create-default-dvm. - -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
