I have just installed mariadb-server on a fresh stable debian 9 (KVM platform) and I can not reproduce this (I am able to change path of pid file): $ sudo apt install mariadb-server $ sudo rep -r pid /etc/mysql/ /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf:pid-file =/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid $ ls -l /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 5 Aug 16 15:05 /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid Change pid path for '/tmp/mysql.pid': $ sudo grep -r pid /etc/mysql /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf:pid-file =/tmp/mysqld.pid $ sudo systemctl restart mysql $ ls -l /tmp/mysqld.pid -rw-rw---- 1 mysql mysql 5 Aug 16 15:07 /tmp/mysqld.pid Some info on system: $ uname -r 4.9.0-7-amd64 $ dpkg -l | grep mariadb ii libmariadbclient18:amd64 10.1.26-0+deb9u1 amd64 MariaDB database client library ii mariadb-client-10.1 10.1.26-0+deb9u1 amd64 MariaDB database client binaries ii mariadb-client-core-10.1 10.1.26-0+deb9u1 amd64 MariaDB database core client binaries ii mariadb-common 10.1.26-0+deb9u1 all MariaDB common metapackage ii mariadb-server 10.1.26-0+deb9u1 all MariaDB database server (metapackage depending on the latest version) ii mariadb-server-10.1 10.1.26-0+deb9u1 amd64 MariaDB database server binaries ii mariadb-server-core-10.1 10.1.26-0+deb9u1 amd64 MariaDB database core server files $ cat /etc/debian_version 9.5 Could you verify again if the issue is still present on your system? What command do you use to restart mysql? Please also take a look at this open issue, I have just linked your bug report there: https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-8168 Regards, Faustin
