Question java errors when calling from cron

I am more or less new to using cron, and I am trying to automate a log cleaning system I have made. The system basically cleans through WWW logs that are mounted on an NFS and creates text files for entry into a local PostgreSQL DB.

For the past year I have been running the various scripts and programs I have created from the terminal daily. Everything worked just fine. However, when I rely on cron I now I find I can not insert into my PostgreSQL DB using its JAVA interface. I get the following errors:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: /Users/admin/LOGS/Insert_data

The flow of the insert routine that I use runs as follows:

01_insert_data.csh -> 01_insert_data.pl -> Insert_data.class
(call one site at a time) (lists up non-inserted files) (inserts data into DB)

What is the difference between running appli from the terminal and running appli from the cron? What gets "lost" with cron that would be nomally found on the terminal?

NAME
yum-cron - an interface to convieniently call yum from cron SYNOPSIS
yum-cron [config-file] DESCRIPTION
yum-cron is an alternate interface to yum that is optimised to be convenient to call from cron. It provides methods to keep repository metadata up to date, and to check for, download, and apply updates. Rather than accepting many different command line arguments, the dif- ferent functions of yum-cron can be accessed through config files. config-file is used to optionally specify the path to the configuration file to use. If it is not given, the default configuration file will be used. It is useful to be able to specify different configuration files for different use cases. For example, one configuration file might be set to update the repository metadata, and a line could be added to the crontab to run yum-cron frequently using this file. Then, another configuration file might be set to install updates, and yum-cron could be run from cron using this file just once each day. FILES
/etc/yum/yum-cron.conf /etc/yum/yum-cron-hourly.conf SEE ALSO
yum (8) AUTHORS
See the Authors file included with this program. BUGS
There of course aren't any bugs, but if you find any, you should email the mailing list, yum@lists.baseurl.org, or consult bugzilla. Nick Jacek yum-cron(8)
