-c option gives error w/ cron "no equals in -c"

[bryanvick]

When I run this command in cron:

0 0 * * * /usr/sbin/partimage -z1 -o -d -m -B -c -s10.0.45.66 save /dev/sda1 /home/bry/backup/app/image

I Get this error:

partimage: no equals in `-c'
partimage: invalid programmed response.

Why is the -c option looking for an equals sign? Isn't it a simple flag option that does not expect an input value?

The problem was actually with the -B switch, which comes right after the --nocheck switch, so the error reporting was not being very helpful. I found a solution on this blog:

I now have: -B Warning*=Continue

The blog will help you to decipher the utterly cryptic documentation on the -B option.
