You need to figure out a way to get your program to tell you *what* exactly fails. A lot of things are different from cron - the most often noticed one being that you have a much shorter PATH - so maybe that is it. But if not, it will save you time to get your application to report what exactly it is doing that fails. -- http://freebsdwiki.org/ - Encrypted mail welcome - keyid 0xBF15490B
