I have a stats package that I would like to update every day. I have setup a simple file that executes different config files when I run the file manually it all works. So I moved the batch file to cron.daily and edited the crontab with the following command

1 4 * * * root /etc/cron.daily/stats.cron

Except it dont work. I know cron.daily should mean that I don't need the specific command but that didno't work either thats why I put in the direct path into the crontab file.

Any ideas why this isn't working I have checked permissions and ownership as well and they all seem ok, however I am worried in case other cron jobs aint doing their stuff.
