title: Amazon RDS MySQL replication
body: <p>I am struggling to setup replica with Amazon RDS. I want to make RDS as my master but for slave I want to setup my server outside of RDS. For now I am setting my slave at EC2. I have checked AWS doc for the information but could not find the exact answer to my question. </p>
  
  <p>However I did found a blog post which have POC for doing it <a href="http://www.ruempler.eu/2013/07/07/replicating-aws-rds-mysql-databases-to-external-slaves/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ruempler.eu/2013/07/07/replicating-aws-rds-mysql-databases-to-external-slaves/</a></p>
  
  <p>But the problem that I facing is I am getting error</p>
  
  <p>ERROR: Got error reading packet from server: Slave can not handle replication events with the checksum that master is configured to log</p>
  
  <p>I tried to set binlog_checksum = none at RDS but RDS is not letting me change its config file.</p>
  
  <p>Please suggest me folks!!</p>
