Do you know which Linux user identifier the mariadbd process is being started with? It looks like the data directory as well as all files inside it are owned by the user mysql and the group mysql. I would guess that the mariadbd process is being run as some other user or group.
Hello,
Thank you so much for your fast answer and help, I deeply appreciate !
Do you mean the mariadb service ? If yes, I checked it by typing "systemctl show -pUser,UID mariadb" and "systemctl show -pGroup,UID mariadb" and it showed me mariadb was run by "mysql" user and group.
root@P-K*:/home# systemctl show -pUser,UID mariadb
UID=[not set] User=mysql
root@P-K*:/home# systemctl show -pGroup,UID mariadb
UID=[not set] Group=mysql
I tried to check for the process as you mentionned but I am not seeing it when trying to display it with "ps -e".
Thank you again for your suggestion and have a beautiful day.
