The strange thing is that if I run this script manually
/root/java_restart/java_restart.sh it works fine and does what it's
supposed to do.
The commonest reason for scripts that that work from a terminal
failing under cron is that the environment isn't set-up correctly.
Usually it's PATH that's missing or incomplete.

Would it be possible to elaborate?
I just fixed my script by altering some parts to Yuri's suggestions:
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
ntstat=`netstat -ap tcp | grep 8180 | sed -n '1p'`
port="8180"
#echo $ntstat
#echo $port
if [[ $ntstat =~ $port ]]; then
echo "Output of Netstat command $ntstat port number $port" >
/root/java_restart/java_restart.log;
else
sleep 60; /usr/local/etc/rc.d/tomcat6 restart;
fi
with crontab now looking like so:
0,30 * * * * /usr/local/bin/bash /root/java_restart/java_restart.sh
Sleep works fine but tomcat still isn't getting restarted......
In terms of paths this is what I'm doing: I'm in a FreeBSD jail logged
in by - #jexec <jail> tcsh
which gets me in as root. Crontab is being run as root so paths should
be the same no?
Hmm..... am puzzled!
