Hello,
I like to automate a daily check and like to run select statement via
cron but this seems to be more tricky than I thought....
I tried the following:
su postgres -c "select count(*) from TABLE where xxxxxx;"
I have the probelm that I am allways asked for the password - I did not
find a way how to pass the password.
Also I like to direct the result to a file, I assume I can do this via >
but not haveing passed the first problem I did not check this.
I am happy for every hint
Thanks a lot
Michael
