qvm-create --class Standalone fails when a template is specified

[yomimono]

Qubes OS version (e.g., R3.2):

4.0 RC1

Affected TemplateVMs (e.g., fedora-23, if applicable):

dom0 (fc25)

---

Expected behavior:

qvm-create --class StandaloneVM -l blue --template debian-8 uservm makes a standalone appVM called uservm based on the debian-8 template.

Actual behavior:

No appvm is created and the command returns an error message:

app: Error creating VM: got empty response from qubesd

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

qvm-create --class StandaloneVM -l blue --template debian-8 uservm

General notes:

qvm-create --class StandaloneVM -l blue uservm succeeds, but qvm-create --class StandaloneVM -l blue --template fedora-25 -v ocaml also gets an empty response from qubesd.

This is because StandaloneVM does not have template. To create StandaloneVM with system copied from template, use qvm-clone --class StandaloneVM

Ah, thanks, that works fine.
