MariaDB — Common Ports

Community software entries: links are references, not individual verification.

Default Ports (1)

3306
tcpDatabase

MySQL classic protocol defaults to TCP 3306. A local Unix-socket connection may bypass TCP entirely, so a port check alone cannot establish whether MySQL is running.

A relational database compatible with the MySQL protocol; check the instance listener configuration.

Scope

Port associations on this page are community-database references (common usage), not a live measurement of any machine; confirm with the official documentation before deployment.

Frequently asked questions

What port does MariaDB use?

MariaDB commonly uses these ports: 3306. The default port is 3306. These are community database references — actual configuration may differ.

How do I check if MariaDB is running?

Run sudo ss -tlpn 'sport = :3306' on the server to check for listening processes on these ports. Also use systemctl status <service> to check the service state. Without root you may not see other users' processes. A listening port alone does not prove the software identity — verify with the config file and process name.
