Also, check that the environment in the cron script is correct. It does
not execute with the environment that you sit down at a terminal
with, in particular $PATH.
Another tip RE: environment variables & cron, if you submit the job
via at (sys-process/at), it will create an executable script in
/var/spool/at/atjobs for running your submitted job, but the script
includes the environment values from the session used to submit the job.
So after submission via at, you can take the atjob file, copy it to
your /etc/cron.* directory and you'll have everything you need
regarding environment.

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll have to experiment with this.
