I am running MariaDB 10.3 on Ubuntu 20.04. Now MariaDB is not running and one database in it. Can I uninstall the MariaDB 10.3 retaining database? My plan is that install a higher version of MariaDB and get back the existing database. If so, which commands do I have to apply?

I got the solution, uninstall MariaDB without deleting databases and reinstall it again.
sudo apt purge "mariadb*" -y
sudo apt autoremove -y
sudo apt-get install mariadb-server mariadb-client

mysqldump -u [username] -p [DATABASE name] > [backup filename].sql
mysql -u [username] -p [DATABASE name] < [backup filename].sql

MariaDB service is not running because of mysqld.sock problem. MySQL dump command will not work. – Vimal Kumar Vazhappally Feb 18 '22 at 11:04
mysqldump databaseName > file.sql) , reinstall MariaDB, and import the database (mysql databaseName < file.sql). Is that what you need? – Jos Feb 17 '22 at 10:55
