Else it's probably the backup script you're using that simply redirects stdout to a file instead of using a temporary file and moving that if there was no error. All mysqldump versions I remember print an error if a database does not exists and exit with != 0. Please give more info on how mysqldump is called in your version. bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
