Niltze all- I have verified issue in subject of this email in a Google Compute Engine (GCE) instance running Debian Stretch. Back when I successfully installed Metztli Reiser4 on a ServerPronto remote dedicated server: < https://metztli.it/blog/index.php/amatl/reiser-nahui/successful-metztli-reiser4-sfrn-4 >, I went crazy trying to figure out why neither MariaDB nor Percona installed in server on referenced link above. < https://www.percona.com/forums/questions-discussions/mysql-and-percona-server/50590-unable-to-install-percona-server-in-debian-stretch-kernel-4-14-13-1 > And I ended up incorrectly blaming the memory in the server and terminating the service. This is typical of what happens -- as logged in /var/log/syslog: Jun 4 06:55:44 host-june2018 mysqld_safe[21395]: 2018-06-04 6:55:44 0 [Warning] InnoDB: Failed to set O_DIRECT on file./ibdata1; CREATE: Invalid argument, continuing anyway.
