It turns out that I *am* doing this properly, but I still get no output and the pg_dump command fails silently. I'm fairly stumped! Furthermore, /var/log/pgsql is still zero bytes... completely empty. Maybe I could more easily solve the problem if this thing were logging something... <smile> Why would logging be either off or not working? Anything I can check or fix? Cheers, -- Rodolfo J.
