sudo command is not working inside a script when placed in cron
Hi All,
i have a cron entry like
0,3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30,33,36,39,42,45,48,51,54,57 * * * * /amex/sssmonitor/dss_chk.ksh
and the script is like
#!/bin/ksh
file=`uname -n`
> /sunmast/projects/oasis/COREDEV/Dss$file.log
> /tmp/output_sss
today=`date`
varb=`ps -ef | grep java | grep sss | grep -v grep | wc -l`
if [ "$varb" -ne 1 ]
then
echo "FAILED : SSS processes down, Recycling SSS " >> /sunmast/projects/oasis/COREDEV/Dss$file.log
sudo /etc/init.d/init.sss start >> /tmp/output_sss
else
echo "SSS process is running successfully on `uname -n` on $today " >> /sunmast/projects/oasis/COREDEV/Dss$file.log
fi
MEMSIZE=`ps -e -o vsz,args | grep /amex/dss/sss/java | grep -v grep | cut -d' ' -f1`
echo " Memory usage by dss java client in kilobytes is $MEMSIZE on $today " >> /sunmast/projects/oasis/COREDEV/Dss$file.log
when i am manully running this script sudo command inside the script is working,But when the cron is executing the sudo command is not working inside the script.
Could anyone let me know what could be the possible reason.
I have checked that the cron is executing as other command are running except the sudo command.
Please help.
Thanks

uudemon
uudemon(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual uudemon(4) NAME
uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour, uudemon.poll - Administrative shell scripts for polling remote systems, cleaning up spool directories, reporting status to the system administrator, and routine invocations of the uuxqt and uusched daemons SYNOPSIS
These shell scripts reside in the following directory: /usr/lib/uucp DESCRIPTION
All the scripts can be run from the command line or can be run automatically by the cron daemon. To automatically run the scripts, remove the comment character (#) from the beginning of the relevant line in the /var/spool/cron/crontabs/uucp file. This script reports status to the system administrator. It issues the uustat command to find out the status of uucp jobs. It mails the results to the uucp login ID. The script may be modified to send mail to any login ID such as the uucp administrative login ID (uucpa) or root. This script cleans up the /var/spool/uucp and /var/spool/uucppublic directories by running the uucleanup command. The uucleanup com- mand is run with the following parameters: -C7, -D7, X2, -o2, -W1. This script runs the uusched and uuxqt daemons in the background. This script polls the systems listed in the /usr/lib/uucp/Poll file. The uudemon.poll script should be scheduled before the uudemon.hour script. This allows uudemon.poll to create any command files before cron runs the uudemon.hour script. FILES
Contains the uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour and uudemon.poll files. Contains the uucp file. RELATED INFORMATION
Commands: cron(8), uucleanup(8), uusched(8), uuxqt(1) Files: /usr/lib/uucp delim off uudemon(4)
