Ok, I looked into ulimit, you were right, not too hard to figure out.  After making the appropriate adjustments, this is now my output of chpst:

`2021-11-12  8:11:47 0 [Note] mysqld (server 10.6.5-MariaDB) starting as process 30445 ...
2021-11-12  8:11:47 0 [Warning] Can't create test file /var/lib/mysql/artix.lower-test
mysqld: Can't change dir to '/var/lib/mysql/' (Errcode: 13 "Permission denied")
2021-11-12  8:11:47 0 [ERROR] Aborting`

Again, any advice at this point would be helpful.  And thank you so much for pointing to the ulimit issue!  After a simple search, I was able to figure that one out.

@calvinh

And it's fixed!!

After going down the error list thanks to your chpst command (that I wasn't aware of prior to you pointing it out), I was able to get it running by opening up further permissions (not secure as of right now, but I just need it to work for development purposes).

You may not know alot about databases(obviously neither do I), but just you pointing out that command was immensely helpful!

I'll be looking forward to seeing you and others around as I try to navigate learning more about linux and the runit init system.

Thanks so much again for everything!
