As we know mysqldump is used for taking back up of database,  Lets see your command :
 
 you have executed mysqldump -u admin -p password productdb
 
 Now Lets see the correct syntax :
 
 mysqldump -u <user_name> -p<user_password>
 
 We have found what you are missing here see you have an space between -p and your password while according to  correct syntax their should not be space between them.
 I hope you got my point.
