Using pg_dump in a cron

Hi all,

I'm using PostgreSQL 8.0.2 on Solaris 10.
I would like to manage an automatic backup of my database.

Here is the line in the cron :
37 * * * * . $HOME/.profile; pg_dump alis -U postgres -f
$AQSADIR/data/backup/alis_data.sql -a -d >/dev/null 2>&1

The dump execution is OK but my user gets a mail containing the following
message :

Your "cron" job on ALIS
. $HOME/.profile; pg_dump alis -U postgres -f
$AQSADIR/data/backup/alis_data.sql -a -d >/dev/null 2>&1

produced the following output:

stty: : No such device or address

What's wrong with it ?
