I am unable to find MariaDB version 10.4.13 using brew. After reinstalling by uninstalling and installing (critical mistake) Homebrew upgraded my version to 10.5.5
Now I am getting the following error:

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have still have my datadir somewhere outside of the /var/log/mysql.
The only way I found round this was to backup my /var/lib/mysql and /var/lib/mariadb directories by renaming them, then creating them as empty directories. I'm aware this isn't an option for many, if you're still in development and working on seed data this should work for you.
There has been some talk about just removing log files from these directories and thus preserving data though I haven't tried this.
Log files reportedly removed that fixed this issue:
/var/lib/mysqld/ib_logfile0
/var/lib/mysql/ib_logfile1
/var/lib/mysql/aria_log_control
