My cron job is running well.
I'll post the code here soon - maybe it will help others.
Just one snag left to iron out on it...
When this line runs:
/usr/bin/mysqldump -q -hdbhost.com -uusername -ppassword dbname /usr/www/users/ourname/backup/database_name_`date "+%Y%m%d"`.sql ;
The result should be:
database_name_20060128.sql
but I get:
database_name_.sql
Any idea why?
I run the cron via crontab manager using the command:
sh cronjobfilename.sh
If anyone knows why my date function is not executing please give me a shout.
Thanks
