Hi Sam! If you report this upstream (or better, send them a Pull Request with the change) and they accept it, we could backport that to Debian.
https://github.com/MariaDB/server/blob/main/support-files/mariadb.service.in#L109C1-L112C14: ``` # Restart crashed server only, on-failure would also restart, for example, when # my.cnf contains unknown option Restart=on-abort RestartSec=5s ``` In Debian we do not have any plans to deviate from upstream systemd file.
