I hope it's now clear. Sorry I missed that. It's most probably my bad attention spam, not your English. That one is no worse than mine :-) Looking at the mariadb entry in my process list (Debian Bullseye), I see (breaking up the long line at spaces): mysql 2473 0.0 0.6 1608036 98724 ? Sl 06:15 0:03 /usr/sbin/mariadbd --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --plugin-dir=/usr/lib/mysql/plugin --user=mysql --skip-log-error --pid-file=/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid --socket=/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock If I've read the output of your "-x" run correctly, it's trying to start with "--basedir=/" instead of /usr. This, at least, looks fishy to me. Any chance you could try to run a command line as above and see whether the daemon likes to start? This would give us something to bisect the problem. Cheers -- t
