Here is the isolated log piece of the failed MariaDB startup:

Code: (Select All)

Apr 22 21:16:26 vps570089 systemd[1]: mariadb.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

I'm surprised. The log this time provides absolutely no proper information at all other than that the startup failed.

Looks like we need to get a look at other log files. Can you share logs with the file ending .err from /var/log/mysql please?

Alternatively if you want I can take a look. I will need root access to check and fix the issue. Feel free to send me a message.
