1 This seems a weird one. After updating to 10.5.9 systemctl claims that
2 there is no unit file
3
4 $ systemctl start mariadb.service
5 Failed to start mariadb.service: Unit mariadb.service not found.
6
7 $ ls -l /lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service
8 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Mar 9 23:08 /lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service -> ./mysqld.service
9
10 So I tried mysqld.service
11 $ systemctl start mysqld.service
12 Failed to start mysqld.service: Unit mysqld.service not found.
13
14 This is on a stable system on which I have just updated mariadb, a
15 testing system has been running the same version with identical unit
16 files with no issues.
17
18 Yes, I have done a daemon-reload, and even rebooted, but systemd refuses
19 to acknowledge the existence of the unit file. Google and bgo have so far
20 failed me.
