Im currently trying to install mariadb after deleting it with sudo apt-get purge mariadb-server-core because it wasnt working, but now I get the error: Unable to locate package mariadb or Package 'mariadb-server' has no installation candidate. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thank you!

EDIT: I just ran mariadb --version and I got this:
mariadb from 11.4.2-MariaDB, client 15.2 for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using EditLine wrapper.
I dont know why tho, I thought it removed it... But I still get an error when running mariadb:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local server through socket '/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)

  • Have you run sudo apt update lately? Run that first.
