Hi, I suspect your password contains some illegal character for the comand line syntax. Change the password to 123 for example and test it with: mysqldump -u user -p123 --all-databases > backup.sql I suspect it will work OK, so you have to do one of the: - change password for something that does not contain any illegal in the meaning of shell scripting characters; - use quota on password line, i.e. mysqldump -u user -p'passwd' --all-databases > backup.sql

This happens either i put --all-databases or I specify any of the databases. I want to do a backup as user root, that's why I use all-databases opt. If I use the command: mysqldump -u root -p --all-databases >backup.sql I get the password prompt, I type the passwd and everythig works great. It seems that there is a problem with -p, i've tried --password with same result. If anyone has any ideea please let me know about it. I mention that i use Freebsd 7_0 and mysql 5.0.67 Thank you -- Andrei Brezan 310280 Arad - Romania mobile <+40 740 089 315> email <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www <http://www.bsoft-company.ro/> _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
