Hi Marco!

Thank you for the advice.

I got:

/home/swkm/services/test/backup.sh: line 4: pg_dump: command not found
updating: mydb_dump_22-11-07.out (stored 0%)

which seems strange

Hi Sorin,

why don't you add a "MAILTO=<youraddress>" at the start of your
crontab file, so that you can receive a report of the problem?
