How do I install MariaDB on M1 Mac?

[colette-exe]

Hello!

I'm trying to follow the installation process on mariadb's website and whenever I get to "mysql_upgrade" I always receive an access denied error. What should I do to fix it? I also can't secure the installation because of that same error

This is the tutorial:

You should specify the credentials the same way you would for the normal mysql command.
