One thing that sounds strange is the message says to try later, which seems like the problem would be on Jolla's end. Is that the case?
No, usually not: It is just a generic message, that something went wrong.
For details see /var/log/systemupdate.log

Yes, see e.g. Sailfish OS Cheat Sheet.

Any other insights?
As it is a quite generic error message, the reasons for it may vary greatly.
I ran into the same message the last couple of SFOS updates, but believe that in my case this is linked to Battery notifier 2 and / or BTRFS balance checker 2. If you have one of them installed, you may disable their autostart, reboot, try updating SFOS, and please report your experience (preferably in aforementioned TJC thread).
