indeed some did :) i can give you some hints.
there's probably an error in your /var/log/messages or syslog. check that.
did you provide a proper PATH variable in your crontab? most crons have only a limited path set initially.
ordinary cron daemons support MAILTO so any output is send via mail too the given address. you might want to set set for debugging or generally.
