After updating to 20.04 I can’t start the mariadb service. I’m very far from a Linux expert, so I’m hoping I haven’t messed this up beyond repair.
After the upgrade I tried following the install steps for 20.04 to get things going again, but when I get to starting mariadb, it fails. All the packages were able to be installed. I’m hoping I missed something simple. Or if there’s some way to export a backup of my database (like I should have done before the upgrade…) and start over fresh, that may be easier.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Here is the output of systemctl status mariadb and journalctl -xe
OUTPUT
