| + | If you set the mariadb root password as shown above you can verify the versions of mysql and mariadb as described in the howto: |
| + | <nowiki># show mysql version |
| + | mysql -e "SELECT VERSION();"</nowiki> |
| + | |
| + | <nowiki># show mariadb version |

| + | CONNECT="--protocol=TCP --port=3307" |
| + | mysql -e "SELECT VERSION();" $CONNECT |
| + | |
| + | # command lines to check mariadb versions |
| + | mysql -e "SELECT VERSION();" --protocol=TCP --port=3307 |
