Mariadb not running after AWS Linux 2 installation

  • 772

I'm running an AWS Linux 2 AMI and installed mariadb. The packages installed are:

yum list | grep maria

But when I try to start the service running

sudo systemctl start mariadb

I get

Failed to start mariadb.service: Unit not found.

Any hints?

  1. You need to enable the service first, as it comes disabled:

    systemctl enable mariadb

    Then you can start it normally:

    systemctl start mariadb

    Finally it worked after explicitly running yum install mariadb-server
