I'm working to a script with /bin/bash shebang.
The script works perfectly if I run from command line.
The script runs under a non root user and inside the commands are set with sudo command in a such a way they can be run under root, for example (first rows of the script):
I'd like to run in crontab under that non root user but when it starts under crontab the variables are set to empty.
Why this behaviour?

bcrontab
bcrontab(1) General Commands Manual bcrontab(1)NAME
bcrontab - Manage users crontab files
SYNOPSIS
bcrontab [ -u user ] file
bcrontab [ -u user ] { -l | -r | -e }
DESCRIPTION
bcrontab interfaces with the bcron-spool daemon to manage crontab files in the privileged spool directory.
OPTIONS -u user
Tell bcron-spool that we are acting on behalf of the named user. bcron-spool will only accept the username if bcrontab is running
as either root or the same user ID as the named user.
-l List the cronab crontab to standard output.
-r Remove the user's crontab.
-e Edit the current crontab.
ENVIRONMENT
VISUAL If this is set, it is used as the editor to invoke to edit a crontab.
EDITOR If $VISUAL is not set and this is, it is used as the editor to invoke to edit a crontab. If neither are set, /bin/vi is used.
BCRON_SOCKET
The path to the named socket used to communicate with bcron-spool. Defaults to /var/run/bcron-spool.
LOGNAME
USER These two variables are used, in order, to determine the user name invoking the program. One must be set if the -u option is not
used.
FILES
bcrontab tries to writes a temporary file into the current directory, and then into /tmp if that fails, in order to edit the current
crontab.
