Hi all This is my first time using mariadb and was setting it up on my Linux PC for local use only. I wanted to make use of socket based activation since I won't need frequent access to my databases.
I was reading the mariadb systemd documentation at: https://mariadb.com/docs/server/server-management/starting-and-stopping-mariadb/systemd#using-systemd-socket-activation This explains that mariadb supports socket activation which is great, but mariadb.socket and others are missing their [Install] section. I've solved this temporarily by including a drop-in file: /etc/systemd/system/mariadb.socket.d/00-install.conf ``` [Install] WantedBy=sockets.target ``` However this seems like a huge oversight to me. So much that I'm confused if this is in fact an intentional decision. Socket activation was introduced in MDEV-5536 over 4 years ago, and in that time no changes have been made. I was not able to find any mention of a lack of [Install] in documentation of git commit history. In fact the documentation I list above explicitly mentions installing the socket using `systemctl enable mariadb.socket` which right now throws an error. I'd appreciate some clarification on this.
