Robin, thank you for your help. The space after the -p was the cause of the problems. Cheers, Clint. Robin Sheat wrote:
The wiki version you have here looks almost correct, except there should be no space after the "-p". That space will cause errors. Otherwise, your version means exactly the same thing. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.

Kia ora, I have spent a good deal of time getting mysqldump to work for me, partly because I am not an expert. Finally, I found out that Ubuntu (I installed this instance from KohaLiveCD) requires the format mysqldump --user=myuser --password=mypassword koha>mysql_backup.sql
this differs from the example in the wiki mysqldump -u myuser -p mypassword koha > mydatadump.sql
I thought I'd add this knowledge to the wiki but then thought perhaps I should check on this list first in case I make a fool of myself (again).
Comments anyone?
Clint.
