Every time I try to do a back up of the databases on our system i get this
error:
ea990# mysqldump -u root -p --opt -full test > test.sql
mysqldump: unrecognized option `--max_allowed_packet=16M'
and it doesnt seem to dump anything, I have tried various options, and
usually use
my db back up script but that doesnt seem to work as well.
----
#!/bin/sh
# mysql nightly dump
PASS="xxxxx"
DATE=`date "+%Y-%m%-%d"`
/usr/local/bin/mysqldump --password=$PASS -A >
/usr/home/http/mysql_dump/backup.$DATE
/usr/bin/bzip2 -9 /usr/home/http/mysql_dump/backup.$DATE
-------
but that gives me the same error as above.
thoughts?
