Can you login to your machine as admin and type crontab -l and mail us the 
output. I suspect a typo in the crontab

How did you create the crontab ? With crontab -e ?

Any line should look like

* * * * * command

where the stars indicate minutes, hours etc.

e.g. */15 * * * * rm -rf /tmp/*

would enmpty your /tmp directory every 15 minutes
