Is there something different about running a job in cron then there is
from a command prompt.
Uh, yeah - environment is very different, PATH is _probably_ different,
and then there's the bit about stdin/stdout/stderr...
I have a FreePascal created program that crashes when I run it from
cron, but works normally when submitted from bash. This program is
starting several other programs (If that makes any difference.)
Try creating a simple cron-job that consists of one line
set > /tmp/cron.environment
and then compare that file with the output of the 'set' command in a
shell.
[compton ~]$ wc /tmp/cron.environment
20 19 236 /tmp/cron.environment
[compton ~]$ set | wc
41 48 1422
[compton ~]$
