You don't need to reinstall it. Just check the $HOME of the otrs user.

It should be the OTRS-root-directory. So if you installed OTRS in 
/opt/OpenTRS (just an example) the $HOME of the otrs user should be
/opt/OpenTRS.

If it is /home/otrs, change the home of the otrs user in /etc/passwd
[...]
otrs:x:UserID:GroupID:OTRS User:/home/otrs/:/bin/true
[...]

to:

[...]
otrs:x:UserID:GroupID:OTRS User:/opt/OpenTRS/:/bin/true
[...]

And bin/Cron.sh should work fine.

  Martin
