crontab -e issue



Hi,

I tried running a program at 12.30 AM using cron. Here is my crontab file:

SHELL=/bin/sh
MAILTO=eric
00 1 * * * /usr/bin/mpg123 /home/eric/Personal/alarm/123.mp3

Now, the time is correct, and when I set it, it was before 1am. I can play mp3s manually.

It doesn't play at 1am (not at all) and I get no emails from cron.

What gives?
