Cron does not seem to work with this crontab. Any ideas?

# run-parts
# commands to execute every hour
01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly
# commands to execute every day
02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily
# commands to execute every week
22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
commands to execute every month
42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly

Also I deleted the cron logfile in var/log. How do I get cron to make/start a new one?

Trying to execute this script once a day
#!/bin/sh
HOST_NAME=`uname -n`
if [ ! -e /var/lib/tripwire/${HOST_NAME}.twd ] ; then
echo "**** Error: Tripwire database for ${HOST_NAME} not found. **
**"
echo "**** Run "/etc/tripwire/twinstall.sh" and/or "tripwire --init". **
**"
else
test -f /etc/tripwire/tw.cfg && /usr/sbin/tripwire --check
fi


Works fine from command line

/etc/cron.daily/tripwire-check
