As I’m on archlinux, let’s try to initialize a server, I guess.


And our beloved wiki!


Init

First, go to root,

su

I don’t know but it actually works!

Then, install the server,

mariadb-install-db --user=mysql --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql

Then comes, the real commands, but first systemd service

sudo systemctl start mariadb

also don’t forget to enable it

sudo systemctl enable mariadb

And then perhaps security!

sudo mariadb-secure-installation

A GUI?

So I guess GUI is available, so should I try?
