Are there any obvious errors in: /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log ? Are your SELinux contexts and ownership correct on /var/lib/mysql and /var/log/mysql? On Tue, Nov 12, 2024 at 6:10 PM Dan O'Reilly via discuss <discuss@lists.mariadb.org> wrote:
When I try to add replication to an existing installation, mariadb refuses to start (I'm a novice at MariaDB). This is on RHEL 9.
This is my server.cnf:

The error I get is:
