tt-rss Exception while creating PDO object:could not find driver

I get this error "Exception while creating PDO object:could not find driver" when trying to access tt-rss, running on Arch using Apache and Maria DB.  It had been working until I had an electrical outage and the server shut down unexpectedly.  I rechecked all of the settings on the Arch wiki page on TT-RSS and have run phpinfo() to confirm that the msql pdo driver is installed.  I'm at a loss on what to do next and would appreciate any ideas.

Thanks.

Did you check the log? Usually it tells more than what is displayed in the frontend.
Can you please restart tt-rss, try to access it again and then paste the log from the starting point on to some pastebin?

The only logs that I could find that contain anything about tt-rss is the apache-error-log.  I posted it here on pastebin: https://pastebin.com/zmRXETZt.  I'm not very good at troubleshooting on the server so let me know if I'm missing something here.

Thanks.

I was assuming you start it via systemd service actually, so the logs would be in the journal. tt-rss writes the log to STDOUT apparently, so you could try running the index.php in a console, see if you get more meaningful output. You may pastebin that, too, if you like.
