Continuing the discussion from [Database backup with cronjob](https://forum.mautic.org/t/database-backup-with-cronjob/29526):

Unfortunately the post above is closed - maybe one Moderator can merge it.

The found out that my find command in the script was wrong - it needs quotation marks if a path is in the line:  
Here is the correct script example of my database saving with deleting after 30 days.

```auto
#!/bin/sh
mysqldump -p'rootpassword' -u root mautic > /home/backups/mautic-database-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).sql
find /home/backups -iname "mautic-database*" -mtime +30 -delete

```
