Try to figure out what has changed since last week. The cron job may be failing now due to the recent changes.
The simplest and most uncomplicated that i can think of are:
1. check if the file /home/adw/BCE_ADW.pl is really there
2. check if the file /home/adw/BCE_ADW.pl has read and execute permissions for the user whose crontab you are using
3. check if the file has been updated recently, due to which it has stopped working
