I'm using cronnix and pi something to edit my crontab, but i checked it manually and it's there. But it's not executing. This is the user crontab, not the global one.

Is cron running? Is the user an admin user? What release of OSX are you using? I can verify that cron works fine on OSX 10.3.2 on my iBook for my user's crontab.

Yes, it is the administrative user, and yes cron is running. I'm also under 10.3.2 .
