MariaDB 10.2 to 10.3 upgrade issues

Tried doing it via WHM, failed with an error so I tried to check via YUM and this is what I get. At the end checking mysql --version shows me 10.3 but as far as everything else is concerned (WHM) I'm still 10.2 This is a Centos 6 machine and I was trying to import the configuration to a new machine I'm setting up on AWS with Centos 7 but it preinstalled 10.3 so it wont run the transfer [root@server ~]# yum update -y Loaded plugins: security, tsflags, universal-hooks Setting up Update Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package MariaDB-server.x86_64 0:10.2.32-1.el6 will be updated ---> Package MariaDB-server.x86_64 0:10.3.23-1.el6 will be an update --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ================================================================================ Package Arch Version Repository Size ================================================================================ Updating: MariaDB-server x86_64 10.3.23-1.el6 MariaDB103 135 M Transaction Summary ================================================================================ Upgrade 1 Package(s) Total download size: 135 M Downloading Packages: MariaDB-server-10.3.23-1.el6.x86_64.rpm | 135 MB 00:08 Running rpm_check_debug Running Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction ****************************************************************** A MySQL or MariaDB server package (MariaDB-server-10.2.32-1.el6.x86_64) is installed. Upgrading directly from MySQL 10.2 to MariaDB 10.3 may not be safe in all cases. A manual dump and restore using mysqldump is recommended. It is important to review the MariaDB manual's Upgrading section for version-specific incompatibilities. A manual upgrade is required. - Ensure that you have a complete, working backup of your data and my.cnf files - Shut down the MySQL server cleanly - Remove the existing MySQL packages. Usually this command will list the packages you should remove: rpm -qa | grep -i '^mysql-' You may choose to use 'rpm --nodeps -ev ' to remove the package which contains the mysqlclient shared library. The library will be reinstalled by the MariaDB-shared package. - Install the new MariaDB packages supplied by MariaDB Foundation - Ensure that the MariaDB server is started - Run the 'mysql_upgrade' program This is a brief description of the upgrade process. Important details can be found in the MariaDB manual, in the Upgrading section. ****************************************************************** error: %pre(MariaDB-server-10.3.23-1.el6.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 1 Error in PREIN scriptlet in rpm package MariaDB-server-10.3.23-1.el6.x86_64 error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping MariaDB-server-10.3.23-1.el6 /etc/yum/universal-hooks/pkgs/MariaDB-server/posttrans/100-build_mysql_conf: running in the background.
