HTC update.zip is encrypted and does not respect the standard file layout. META-INF is missing, content is:
info.bin
zip_0.zip
zip_1.zip
zip_2.zip
zip_3.zip
zip_4.zip
zip_5.zip
zip_6.zip
Therefore this file can only flashed from stock recovery.

Update engine does not flash both A and B, 2 slots exists for rollback purpose if updated slot does not boot up.

You are on the right track.
The message "failed to verify whole-file signature", means that the file could not be deemed valid for the provided certificate.
The missing error message indicates that this is the case as the signature could not be matched to the trusted certificate store:
