Hi,

I am a little confused on how to get logging working, perhaps some advanced users can help :)

Here's what I'm trying to do, I am backing up my MySQL data using a shell script and mysqldump. I would like to be able to send an email notification to myself to know that the dump worked.

I was thinking of tac'ing or tail'ing the last few entries of a mysql (or mysqldump??) log and pipping it to an email. Does this sound like a good idea?

It appears my server is not logging by default, how do I enable a log that would store this info, or am I looking at this the wrong way.

Thanks :)
JJ
