Quite a while ago I upgraded to TOS5 which didn’t work well so that I rolled back to TOS3. Afterwards I was happy that the Omnia worked again but never started installing nextcloud for example.
My mariadb-server can’t start:
mysql -u root -p status
Enter password:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/run/mysql.sock’ (2)
I don’t have the file /var/run/mysql.sock.
Reinstalling mariadb didn’t work neither does restarting or starting mysqld:
mysqld restart (or mysqld start)

Sorry, I don’t know where to start. I had a running database for kodi and nextcloud, both I didn’t use for a while but would like to use it again. I can’t even check if the db’s are still there. It might have to do with the above mentioned rollback.
Thanks to everybody for any hints and help!
