MariaDB messages when stopping/starting any service

Viewed 1521

We have:

Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Release: 10
Codename: buster
x86_64
Linux 4.19.0-17-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.194-3 (2021-07-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux
mysql  Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.6.4-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.2

When starting/stopping mariadb.service, the following message appears:

Failed to get properties: Unit name mariadb-extra@.socket is neither a valid invocation ID nor unit name.
Failed to get properties: Unit name mariadb@.socket is neither a valid invocation ID nor unit name.

The same messages pop up when starting/stopping any service.

What's wrong with mariadb user sockets? How can I remove these messages?

From MDEV-27715, the service implementation of Debian/Ubuntu is deficient in that it doesn't fully understand socket templated files of systemd.

Use systemctl.
