Hi Chris, In CentOS 7, error logs are handled by systemd.
Use the "journalctl -u mariadb.service" command to view them. I have no idea what's wrong with the general logs though. Maybe that's some permission issue. Please check that the mysql user can write in /var/log/mysql. You might have success by changing the log path to your datadir, e.g. to /mnt/mysqldbs/mysql.log, since mysqld can always write in its own datadir.
