I don't know which is the default Shell for cron jobs in Redhat 5.
If it is not the same as the Shell in your interactive account, then you will need a Shebang line on the first line of the script to cause it to execute with the correct Shell.
Yes it is the same script as in my last thread. One interesting note that I created the cron job s from my Oracle user, will I try to create the same cron job from root user and see the result? What's your opinion?

First, let's take a proper look at the root mailbox.
Read the file with more and search for the name of your script.
I suspect that you will see syntax errors for the "export" lines because your Shell in cron is not suitable for your script, or maybe some other error?
If it's not in the root mailbox, try the oracle mailbox. The cron log however suggested that the job failed before cron had a chance to change the user to oracle.
If you create the job as a root cron, the crontab line will need a "su oracle" (or whatever is appropriate in Red Hat). There is no real advantage to doing this.
Permissions on the script might be wrong?
