MariaDB Not Installed After HestiaCP Installation with MySQL8

Hi all,

I followed the instructions to install HestiaCP on my server, and I need both MySQL and MariaDB. I ran the installation command like this:

bash hst-install.sh --port '2083' --hostname 'test.example.com' --username 'admin' --email '[email protected]' --password 'admin1234' --apache no --multiphp '8.4' --mysql8 yes

Since MariaDB is supposed to be the default for HestiaCP, I expected it to be installed automatically. However, after completing the installation, I can’t find MariaDB running on my server.

Did I miss something in the installation process, or is there an additional step I need to take to get MariaDB installed alongside MySQL8?

Any help would be appreciated!

You can’t install mariadb and mysql on the same server, this can’t work as both services are using the same port.

Hi @sany

Hestia doesn’t support that. You must use either MariaDB or MySQL.
