title: Can i change the locale oon MySQL Source-Configuration Options
body: <p>I've been working on MySQL recently, and I'm changing the default settings to my convenience. I change the locale from 'en_US' to 'es_PA' because this is where I live, and I want to check the time format that way. </p>
  
  <p>The thing is that normally, every time I turn on my Rpi and enter the MySQL server, the locale is at 'en_US'. so I enter the super user and do this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>set global lc_time_names = 'es_PA';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So that changes everyone's locale. But whenever I disconnect from the server, and turn off the Rpi, the locale changes back to 'en_US'.</p>
  
  <p>So, my questions are two:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Am I changing the locale right?</li>
  <li>Is there a way i can change it by default on the my.cnf like I did with the UTF8 (character-set)?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
