I see policy syntax error (with specific line in your file). The service shouldn't crash (that's a bug here), but it wouldn't allow the call either.

Oh, I see. Thank you for pointing that out.
That line (line 52) is actually a commented-out policy rule (i.e., a line beginning with a #
which, if removed, would result in a policy line). Shouldn't such commented lines be ignored, regardless of whether the rule (if not commented) would have had proper syntax?
Yes, commented-out line should be ignored, not interpreted. See the service failed 17h ago, maybe it wasn't commented out at that point?

Ah, possibly. I could've sworn that global pasting worked since then, but maybe my memory is faulty. (Wouldn't be the first time!)
Sounds like this is related to #7043? I keep running into similar issues every now and then when tweaking policies.

Yes, the Qrexec policy daemon should never crash.
Not allowing the RPC call (essentially a $anyvm $anyvm deny
for that rpc) is a safe default.

Brief summary
The global inter-qube clipboard was working fine one minute, then suddenly pasting stopped working. (Copying still worked.)
Steps to reproduce
In my case, I was trying to copy @marmarek's signed comment here so that I could verify it in another qube.
ctrl+shift+C
still worked normally. I got a notification in dom0 that the text had been copied to the global clipboard. However, nothing happened when I pressedctrl+shift+V
. I tried random text with a bunch of different qube combinations with the same result. It had been working fine minutes ago.Expected behavior
Normal global clipboard pasting.
Actual behavior
In dom0:
