Probably your profile not being run correctly from the cron. We have several boxes (Tru64) where even though we are using cron from the oracle account we need to use the following syntax
00 19 * * * su - oracle -c '/usr/local/bin/script'
otherwise the .profile is not run

Subject: Backup script giving error when run by cron
Hi gurus,
Our database is running on Dynix in a Sequent machine.
I tried to put the startup/shutdown script we use in crontab and
schedule it.
I call a script shut.sh which in turn will call the shutdown.sh
script. But it gives me an error saying svrmgrl- not found. I've
given here those scripts..
What am I missing??
This shut.sh is called by the cron
shut.sh
--------------------------------------------------------------------
/data23/tbms/.profile
/data21/app/oracle/admin/TBMS/dba/shutdown.sh
>/data21/app/oracle/admin/TBMS/db
a/shut.log 2>/data21/app/oracle/admin/TBMS/dba/shut.err
---------------------------------------------------------------------
shutdown.sh
-----------
ORACLE_SID=TBMS
export ORACLE_SID
INITIAL_STATUS=`ps -ef|grep "ora_[a-z]*_TBMS"|wc -l`
echo $INITIAL_STATUS
if [ $INITIAL_STATUS != 0 ]; then
svrmgrl <<EOF
connect internal
alter system switch logfile;
shutdown immediate;
exit
EOF
DB_STATUS=`ps -ef|grep "oracleTBMS"`
if [ -n $DB_STATUS ]; then
echo "Starting up the database in restrict mode"
svrmgrl <<EOF
connect internal
startup restrict;
shutdown ;
exit
EOF
echo "Database TBMS shutdown"
else
echo "Error in shutting down database"
exit
fi
else
echo "Database is already shutdown..exiting"
exit
fi
