I checked /var/log/cron there are no logs being generated. My script itself has its own log. Even its not being created. I am not sure what going wrong.How do I debug whether a cron job is executing or not?

You never said if you were able to run the job manually.

Can you show the actual crontab entry?

can you also...


Code:
cd /where/my/script/is
ls -l script_name
ksh -n script_name

Thanks.
