How to direct mysqldump error to a file?

[Jannie Qu]

Hi, all,

sql, query.

I am scheduling a cronjob to backup mysql database using mysqldump.
================================
mysql@/usr/local/mysql/output > /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqldump -umysql -pmysqlpw --opt nondb > bkp1.sql 2> err.log
Ambiguous output redirect.
================================

How I can direct any stderr to a file?

Thank you,
Jing
