Errors Launching MariaDB on Lightsale

Hello,

I recently launched a new Lightsale instance and the first thing I wanted to do is launch MariaDB. I ran the below command, which I found in AWS help docs:

sudo /opt/bitnami/mariadb/bin/mysqld_safe --defaults-file=/opt/bitnami/mariadb/conf/my.cnf --init-file=/tmp/mysql-init 2> /dev/null &

But the process dies almost immediately. Here is the associated errors from mysqld.log:

The my.cnf is pretty basic:

[mysqladmin] user=

[mysqld] skip_name_resolve explicit_defaults_for_timestamp basedir=/opt/bitnami/mariadb port=3306 tmpdir=/opt/bitnami/mariadb/tmp socket=/opt/bitnami/mariadb/tmp/mysql.sock pid_file=/opt/bitnami/mariadb/tmp/mysqld.pid max_allowed_packet=16M bind_address=127.0.0.1 log_error=/opt/bitnami/mariadb/logs/mysqld.log slow_query_log=0 slow_query_log_file=/opt/bitnami/mariadb/logs/mysqld.log long_query_time=10.0 character_set_server=utf8 collation_server=utf8_general_ci plugin_dir=/opt/bitnami/mariadb/lib/plugin

[client] port=3306 socket=/opt/bitnami/mariadb/tmp/mysql.sock pid_file=/opt/bitnami/mariadb/tmp/mysqld.pid !include /opt/bitnami/mariadb/conf/bitnami/my_custom.cnf !include /opt/bitnami/mariadb/conf/bitnami/memory.conf

I have made no changes to anything, other than creating /tmp/mysql.init as described on another AWS kb article, but all that does is change the root password for MariaDB. Can anyone help me figure this out?
