Seeing unexpected results when i run through cronjob

Hi

I'm having hard time here with below script. If i run script manually i see expected results but, if i keep this script in cron job i'm getting unexpected results. Unexpected results means even though condition is true,cronjob returning output of else condition.

This script and cronjob running on same linux server.Please let me know if i need to make any changes in code.

Code:

#!/bin/bash
#set -x
content1='bind successful'
file1=/cpt/app/scripts/test/sra
 
echo "testing" >>$file1 &
 
hn=ldrfvb1232.example.com
port=2507
user=dummy
pwd=xxxxxx
 
wallet_pwd=xxxxxx
 
amm=$(/cpt/apps/oracle/Oracle_Home/bin/ldapbind -h $hn -p $port -D "cn=$user" -w $pwd -U 2 -W "file:/cpt/apps/scripts/test/wallet" -P $wallet_pwd)
 
 
 
if [ "$amm" = 'bind successful' ]; then
 
echo  "$hn:$port-Health Check SUCCESS!" >>$file1 &
else
echo "$hn:$port-Health NOT-OK!" >>$file1 &
fi
exit

       /etc/cron.daily/apticron
