Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the reply. As I said /var/log/mysql is empty. However this is a moot point now. I uninstalled maria and installed mysql clean.

Since it was Aria as well, this may not be the final issue, but every time i see "*[ERROR] Plugin 'InnoDB' registration as a STORAGE ENGINE failed." *Its due to old ib_logfiles which can be cleared.  They would be in /var/lib/mysql.  Also check if you have "undo00N" logs, normally N = 3.  These can safely be cleared as they will be rebuilt when mariadb finds them missing.

    *I searched for this error (Unknown storage engine Aria) but the
    solution is to remove the log from /var/log/mysql. However, that
    directory is empty. If ubuntu puts that log somewhere else I
    cannot find it. Can someone point me in the right direction for
    resolving this? TIA.
