title: Amazon RDS Mysql: Allowing the use of Events and Triggers
body: <p>Today I attempted to turn on my the Events Scheduler on my Amazon RDS instance.</p>
  
  <p>I received the following error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Access denied; you need (at least one of) the SUPER privilege(s) for
    this operation.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I've been looking a a couple of post around the internet on how to solve this but I haven't found anything of real use. I'm not sure where to even start to figure out a solution because these posts have stated that Amazon doesn't grant SUPER privileges to anyone.</p>
