chown: invalid user: ‘mysql’


PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MariaDB root USER !
To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands:

'/usr/bin/mysqladmin' -u root password 'new-password'
'/usr/bin/mysqladmin' -u root -h ekycdb1 password 'new-password'

Alternatively you can run:
'/usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation'

which will also give you the option of removing the test
databases and anonymous user created by default.  This is
strongly recommended for production servers.

See the MariaDB Knowledgebase at http://mariadb.com/kb or the
MySQL manual for more instructions.

Then, I tried to initialize the cluster by running the script, /usr/bin/galera_new_cluster.  It could be done successfully.  Here below is the startup log:

Then I run 'mysql -u root' and checked cluster status:

The wsrep_cluster_size is 0, not 1. Why?

Answer Answered by Geoff Montee in this comment.

I don't see wrep_on=ON in your my.cnf, so Galera Cluster is not enabled. See Configuring MariaDB Galera Cluster: Mandatory Options.
