[Solaris-Users] cron job to backup mysql database

[Christine Ross]

I have 2 servers running mysql and a cronjob that does a mysqldump to a 
file and then backs up the file.  On one server where there is no root 
password on the database, the dump works.  On the server with the root 
password for the mysql database, the cron job runs but generates an empty 
dump file.  If I run the same backup script manually, it dumps 
correctly.  When it runs as a cron job, it dumps to a zero length file.  I 
do not see any errors.   Any ideas
