MariaDB - my.cnf isn't in my server CentOs

I have been working with MariaDB and i don't know why there is no my.cnf. But the crazy thing is that:

  1. Where it is suposed that the file should be, there is only the my.cnf.d, but the .cnf isn't.
  2. If i write a new file called my.cnf and i copy from another server, it works.

I want to know why happen this?

PD: This is my instalation via yum:

sudo yum install MariaDB-server MariaDB-client
sudo systemctl start mariadb
mysql_secure_installation
Solution

  • Depending on the specific version there may be no my.cnf file. See MariaDB KB

    MariaDB will use compiled defaults if there is no my.cnf to override them. You can use my.cnf.d as a starting point for that.
