The problem is more likely to be in one or more of these areas:
Code:
Contents of "/file/MyScript".
Assumptions about the environment (cron's is different from user).
Relative file names.
Missing "shebang" line meaning that you use cron's default shell.
Script asks questions when there is no terminal?
Permissions of "/file/MyScript".
Executable?
Permissions of the user.
User allowed to use cron?
Fundamental problem.
cron daemon not running?
The error message is usually to be found in the unix mail for the user owning the cron.
To check whether the job ran at all see cron's own log (see "man cron" for location of the log).

script-email - Amanda script to send email notifications
DESCRIPTION
script-email is an Amanda script implementing the Script API. It should not be run by users directly. It sends a notification email to the
addresses specified in the MAILTO property.
PROPERTIES
This section lists the properties that control script-email's functionality. See amanda-scripts(7) for information on the Script API,
script configuration.
MAILTO
List of email addresses that will receive an email on command execution. It is a multi-valued property:
property "MAILTO" "amanda@domain.com" "sysadmin@domain.com" "amandauser@domain.com"
EXAMPLE
In this example, script-email is scheduled to be run before the DLE, on the server. The unqualified email address amanda will be passed to
the email system unchanged. The script is then attached to a dumptype, which can then be specified for any DLEs which require
notification.
define script-tool pre-email {
comment "email me before this DLE is backed up"
plugin "script-email"
execute-on pre-dle-backup
execute-where server
property "mailto" "amanda"
}
define dumptype user-tar-email {
user-tar
script "pre-email"
}
