cron jobs running, but not...

I have a cron job set up to run a script on my Leopard Server every night. The job is set up as root, and when I run the script manually, it runs fine.
The problem is that it is not doing anything when it runs at night. In the cron log, it says it ran, but did not output the results to the file it is supposed to or accomplish it's task (and does when I run it manually).
I originally thought the problem was that I wasn't running it as root, which would have made sense, but it doesn't run as root either.

Any ideas out there?
