Replace all instances of date with /usr/bin/date and do the same for every command/path.



Use absolute paths in cron scripts, expect the shell to be dumb and not use any PATH or environmental variables. Also the shell used by default is /bin/sh not bash.




date: not found




which date
/usr/bin/date
