Thanks Neill... |

Tried changing the command in the script to: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
> /usr/bin/pg_dumpall -U $PGUSER -o | gzip > mkdir -p $BACKUP_DIR/$PGyy/$PGmm/$PGdd/pg_all-$PGtt.gz |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
and got this error: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
# ./ecat_pgdump.sh |
| 21 |
gzip: invalid option -- 'p' |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Tried putting quotes around it like this: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
> /usr/bin/pg_dumpall -U $PGUSER -o | gzip > "mkdir -p $BACKUP_DIR/$PGyy/$PGmm/$PGdd/pg_all-$PGtt.gz" |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
and got the original error with the added 'mkdir -p': |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
# ./mypg_pgdumpall.sh |
| 30 |
./mypg_pgdumpall.sh: line 10: mkdir -p |
| 31 |
/home/user/mypg_backups/2013/May/Sun/ecat-14:26.gz: No such file or |
| 32 |
directory |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
I'm guessing I just need to know where to put the quotes? |
