Troubleshooting Overview

A starting guide for DBAs and developers to diagnose server issues, focusing on initial checks and systemic health verification.

This page is focused on system-level development: It is geared toward developers or DBAs trying to diagnose why a specific instance is failing or crashing in a production or testing environment (e.g., interpreting error messages, handling crashes).

There are a number of ways MariaDB can result in a fault for you as the user. Getting a good clear understanding of the problem is the perfect way to get a good bug report to developers to allow them to fix your problem.

Like the MariaDB Community Bug Reporting says, start by searching for an existing bug. If its not found, or it not 100% clear that it applies to you, gain some additional information an include those in a new or perhaps and existing bug report.
