    On Plesk Version 18.0.49 Update #2, Ubuntu 18.04, and upgrading MariaDB from 10.1 to 10.6.1.  The instructions here didn't work for me as is. Here are the changes in hopes it will help others in my scenario:

    1. In Step 1, I had to be the root user (ie. "sudo -s").  Otherwise I would get a "Permission denied" error trying to access the password file.
    2. In Step 6, the mariadb-server wouldn't restart with the error mentioned in this article.  However, the "/etc/my.cnf" file mentioned in that article did not exist on my system. Instead I made the edit to the "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" file  (ie. changing the line "bind-address = ::ffff:127.0.0.1" to "bind-address = 127.0.0.1"). Then restarting the mariadb-server succeeded and the rest of the instructions seemed to go as planned.

    According to Plesk Changelog, MariaDB 10.11 is supported since Plesk Obsidian 18.0.52, right ?
