Issue Maria DB 10.11 > 11.4 upgrade results in issues with Plesk Repair Tool - reports innodb corruption in ibdata1

@opus68 , it's an upstream bug in MariaDB. It hasn't been fixed yet. I cannot provide an ETA at this point, as the fix depends on MariaDB rather than Plesk.

@Megaboss , have you checked if the MariaDB service is active?

Yes it is.

It was Plesk repair tool that killed my database...
Spent the hole weekend building up my server again.

I can confirm the issue still exists on Plesk Obsidian 18.0.76 Update #2.

Fresh installation, MariaDB 10.x > MariaDB 11.8.6 Upgrade results in issues with Plesk Repair Tool - reports InnoDB corruption in ibdata1.

However, I can also confirm that after clicking on the restart service button, MariaDB service is becomes active, can't see any damaged databases.

I can confirm this; I have the same problem. The Plesk Repair Tool killed my database. Now I have to rebuild the entire server, including all client websites. That's going to be fun, rebuilding almost 500 GB of websites.

@Megaboss @RC-Devil if you can open a ticket with Plesk support for further investigation on your server, please do. I am unable to replicate the issue on a test environment, so the root cause might be somewhere else.

@Sebahat.hadzhi After the bug corrupted all databases, internal systems were also affected, as their databases were also damaged. This led to errors in the mail servers, Fail2Ban, and several other system areas. Rather than spend ages trying to fix everything, I opted for a clean install and restoration of all 30 websites from a backup. This only took me a weekend; a repair would have taken much longer.
Apparently, the days of bug-free updates are over.
