problem running bash script from cron

[abubin]

i have a very simple bash script that I schedule to run every hour.

But the problem is, this script does run but the command inside doesn't work.

If I run it manually, it works. I am puzzled!!!

Here is the script:

#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/pon vpn1

crontab run under root user.
30 */1 * * * /home/script.sh

Problem is not the cron but the script doesn't work when run under cron.

If I run it manually using ./script.sh, then it will work.

Any ideas?

*the pon command is to connect to a remote vpn server

what happens when you put it in /etc/crontab instead of the personal crontab I've never liked using personal crontabs, they always seem to have problems.

30 */1 * * * root /home/script.sh
