MariaDB (LAB 18.1)

Hello,
While following the steps in the lab 18.1 at step 11 when I domysql -u student -p test
I get
ERROR 1049 (42000): Unknown database 'test'
mysqlshow
+--------------------+
| Databases |

| information_schema |
| mysql |

So, it seems like I don't have a 'test' database
I double checked, I opted for leaving the test database while doing mysql_secure_installation
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] n ... skipping.
My system is ubuntu server 20.04.

Tried also on CentOS 8 VM, no test database either
Yes, the instructions specifically state to retain the test database. Do not delete it.
Thank you for the input.
