I have just migrated from mysql to mariadb on Ubuntu 20.04 server with apt install mariadb-server.
The installation ended fine, but mariadb-server didn't start.
This is the output of the command:
service mariadb start; journalctl -xe
Job for mariadb.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status mariadb.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
