MariaDB server is a community developed fork of MySQL server. Started by core members of the original MySQL team, MariaDB actively works with outside developers to deliver the most featureful, stable, and sanely licensed open SQL server in the industry.

Vladislav Vaintroub 9fdc0e5440 MDEV-34546 Windows - no error log entries after startup in XAMPP
The server does not log errors after startup when it is started without the
--console parameter and not as a service. This issue arises due to an
undocumented behavior of FreeConsole() in Windows when only a single
process (mariadbd/mysqld) is attached to it, causing the window to close.

In this case stderr is redirected to a file before FreeConsole()
is called. Procmon shows FreeConsole closing file handle
subsequent writes to stderr fail with ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE because
WriteFile() cannot operate on the closed handle. This results in losing
all messages after startup, including warnings, errors, notes, and
crash reports.

Additionally, some users reported stderr being redirected to
multi-master.info and failing at startup, but this could not be reproduced
here.

The workaround involves calling FreeConsole() right before the redirection of
stdout/stderr. This fix has been tested with XAMPP and via cmd.exe using
"start mysqld". Automated testing using MTR is challenging for this case.

The fix is only applicable to version 10.5. In later versions, the
FreeConsole() call has been removed.

MariaDB: The innovative open source database

MariaDB was designed as a drop-in replacement of MySQL(R) with more features, new storage engines, fewer bugs, and better performance.

MariaDB is brought to you by the MariaDB Foundation and the MariaDB Corporation. Please read the CREDITS file for details about the MariaDB Foundation, and who is developing MariaDB.

MariaDB is developed by many of the original developers of MySQL who now work for the MariaDB Corporation, the MariaDB Foundation and by many people in the community.

MySQL, which is the base of MariaDB, is a product and trademark of Oracle Corporation, Inc. For a list of developers and other contributors, see the Credits appendix. You can also run 'SHOW authors' to get a list of active contributors.

Getting the code, building it and testing it

Refer to the following guide: https://mariadb.org/get-involved/getting-started-for-developers/get-code-build-test/ which outlines how to build the source code correctly and run the MariaDB testing framework, as well as which branch to target for your contributions.
