Hi Jeff,

Yes, that was a typo on my part. Sorry. /var/lib/mysql was empty. Probably an installation issue but as I said it is moot at this point.

    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.
