title: AWS EC2 - MySQL Event Scheduler Not Starting on Server Restart With Event_Scheduler = ON
body: <p>I currently have</p>
  
  <pre><code>event_scheduler = ON
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>in my <code>my.cnf</code> file on my EC2 instance at <code>/etc/my.cnf</code></p>
  
  <p>If the MySQL instance restarts, the event scheduler does not start up automatically.  </p>
  
  <p>What could be preventing the event scheduler from starting automatically?</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to check if another <code>my.cnf</code> file is overwriting the one at <code>/etc/my.cnf</code>?</p>
