mysql parameters cannot be set permanently
Issue
Although it is possible to change character_set_client, character_set_connection, character_set_results within a mysql client from latin1 to utf8, those parameters are not set automatically to utf8 if the following is added in /etc/my.cnf
<br />default-character-set=utf8<br />
