Err...
The program is not executed by cron but by run-parts (which is
executed by cron, if that matters, via /etc/crontab).
Programms in /etc/cron.{daily,weekly,monthly,hourly} are executed
regularly via run-parts. Their name doesn't appear in the logs
since it's not cron that executes them.
For testing purpose, try executing it standalone, and maybe add
debug output (echo "$(date) script started" >> /var/log/daily.log)
and inspect the log after the daily jobs have been run.

Joey
