Hi all,

I upgraded my vps from debian 10 to debian 11. Something changed with my mariadb setup and it won't start now.

I can log into mysql as root manually in terminal. Here is the output from the status command:

Code:status;

I restart the daemon, but mariadb returns an error:
Code:# systemctl status mariadb
