To change the mysql configuration you should be logged in as root

if not check if you have sudo privileges to modify the mysql configuration file

If you still has issues with it you need to check if the file has the attribute set on it using the below command

lsattr  /etc/my.cnf 

if its shows you the attributes applied to it remove it using below command

chattr -aiu  /etc/my.cnf
