Issue MariaDB upgrade error

Servus

Basic Pleskian
Hi,
in a few words: Today I made the upgrade of MariaB from 10.3.19 (from 10.3.18). Two hours later I also made the libmariadb3 upgrade.
During the upgrade the question came, if I want to replace the /etc/mysql/my.cnf.
I hit D for showing the differences. After examination, I wanted to hit: Keep the currently-installed version.
But however I hit the wrong letter "N" for no.
It installed the new one, which I later replaced by the old one. It seems everything okay with the upgrade.

Problem: My examination took half an hour. I got the message W: Operation was interrupted before it could finish

Code:
root@server:~# aptitude upgrade

When I call the status of Mariadb (active running) it throws the following output (FATAL ERROR in the end!):

But by grep mariadb /var/log/dpkg.log | grep upgrade I get (seems okay):
Code:

2019-11-06 16:18:49 upgrade libmariadb3:amd64 1:10.3.18+maria~bionic 1:10.3.19+maria~bionic

How can I check if the upgrade is really successful or wrong?

Nobody has an inspiration for the differences between?:
2019-11-06 16:18:49 upgrade libmariadb3:amd64 1:10.3.18+maria~bionic 1:10.3.19+maria~bionic
and
Nov 06 22:45:04 server.example.com /etc/mysql/debian-start[8111]: FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed

In Plesk panel and everywhere 10.3.19 is displayed.And repair test in Plesk panel shows no error.
Does perhaps someone can tell me if the upgrade is really successful or not?
I think of the possibility that the new version is shown, but in real there is an error.
