-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I didn't understand how to insert a password into pg_dump command line. So I write this steps for insert password on pg_dump. 1) Connect to postgres user [root@]# su - postgres 2) Create a .pgpass file Bash$ vi .pgpass ( it contains a single line like http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/libpq-pgpass.html mention it) *:5432:database:username:password Bash$ chmod 600 .pgpass (also I change this file to being used by postgres, with chown postgres.postgres .pgpass, I don't know if it works with root) 3) The postgres dump command line Bash$ /usr/bin/pg_dump database > /var/lib/pgsql/backups/bkup.sql For finish the test, I will put the line into a crontab or script.

I didn’t understand how to insert a
password into pg_dump command line. So I write this steps for insert password
on pg_dump. 1)
Connect to postgres user [root@]# su – postgres 2)
Create a .pgpass file (into
postgres session) Bash$ vi .pgpass ( it contains a single line
like http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/libpq-pgpass.html
mention it) *:5432:database:username:password Bash$ chmod 600
.pgpass (also I change
this file to being used by postgres, with chown postgres.postgres .pgpass, I
don’t know if it works with root) 3)
The postgres dump command line Bash$ /usr/bin/pg_dump database >
/var/lib/pgsql/backups/bkup.sql For finish the test, I will put the line
into a crontab or script. But is the same for pg_dumpall? Or I need
to create another line into .pgpass file? I’ll try. Thanks Lic. Erick Ruiz Rojas |
