What editor are you expecting? Where does it show up, and is it showing
up where you expect it to show up? How are you specifying your choice
of editors to crontab?
The man page for crontab says, in part,
The -e option is used to edit the current crontab using
sensible-editor(1).
The man page for sensible-editor indicates where it looks and in what
order. I suggest you check those places, and in that order.
