"Failed to synchronize cache for repo" errors when updating Fedora templates
|
||
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
|
||
This is general Fedora issue, not a Qubes-specific issue. Usually, this
|
||
is due to network problems (especially if downloading updates over Tor)
|
||
or problems with the download mirrors. Often, the problem can be
|
||
resolved by trying again on a different connection (a different Tor
|
||
circuit, if using Tor) or waiting and trying again later. Here are some
|
||
examples of non-Qubes reports about this problem:

Lost internet access after a template update
|
||
--------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
|
||
In earlier versions of Qubes, there were situations where qubes lost
|
||
internet access after a template update. The following fix should be
|
||
applied in recent versions of Qubes.
|
||
|
||
Run ``systemctl enable NetworkManager-dispatcher.service`` in the
|
||
template upon which your NetVM is based. You may have to reboot
|
||
afterward for the change to take effect. (Note: This is an upstream
|
||
problem. See `this Redhat ticket <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=974811>`__). For
|
||
details, see the qubes-users mailing list threads
|
||
`here <https://groups.google.com/d/topic/qubes-users/xPLGsAJiDW4/discussion>`__
|
||
and
|
||
`here <https://groups.google.com/d/topic/qubes-users/uN9G8hjKrGI/discussion>`__.)

Windows update is stuck
|
||
-----------------------
|
||
|
||
|
||
This has nothing to do with Qubes. It’s a longstanding Windows bug. More
|
||
information about this issue and solutions can be found
|
||
`here <https://superuser.com/questions/951960/windows-7-sp1-windows-update-stuck-checking-for-updates>`__.

||
Dom0 and/or template update stalls when updating via the GUI tool
|
||
-----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
|
||
This can usually be fixed by updating via the command line.
|
||
|
||
In dom0, open a terminal and run ``sudo qubes-dom0-update``.
|
||
|
||
Depending on your operating system, open a terminal in the templates and
|
||
run: * Fedora: ``sudo dnf upgrade`` * Debian:
|
||
``apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade``
