The problem is you are using an older version of pg_dump to dump a newer
database. That will not work.
Possible solution:
You are running via cron. Cron has its own environment. Unless you are
explicit in your pathing you can get surprising results, see above.
Find the path to the 9.1.2 version of pg_dump and use that absolute path
in your script.

All database backups complete!
