Works fine for me. Couple of caveats:
1) Make sure you've got the syntax right in crontab... the right number of
fields and all that. If you can't run "echo foo >bar" from cron, something else
is wrong.
2) Cron isn't going to read your startup files (.profile, .bashrc, etc.) files
when it kicks off actions. If you're depending on environment set in those
files, such as CLASSPATH, you'd better find another way to set it: put the whole
thing (setting environment and invoking the JVM) into a shell script and invoke
the script from cron.
