Hello ,
I added the user root to the crontab file below : -

50 13 * * 1 3 5  root /scripts/backup/test.sh
10 14 * * 1 3 5  root  /scripts/backup/twiceweekly.sh
00 14  * * 1  root /scripts/backup/test1.sh

/var/log/cron showed this : -
May 27 13:50:00 SA01 CROND[12181]: (root) CMD (3 5  root
/scripts/backup/test.sh
)
May 27 14:00:00 SA01 CROND[12192]: (root) CMD (   /sbin/rmmod -as)
May 27 14:00:00 SA01 CROND[12193]: (root) CMD (root
/scripts/backup/test1.sh)
May 27 14:01:00 SA01 CROND[12197]: (root) CMD (run-parts /etc/cron.hourly)
May 27 14:10:00 SA01 CROND[12207]: (root) CMD (   /sbin/rmmod -as)
May 27 14:10:00 SA01 CROND[12208]: (root) CMD (3 5  root
/scripts/backup/twicew
eekly.sh)

However , none of the scripts were executed.

The scripts look like : -

cp /terrasky/tsfileserver/Techadmin/timesheet/madhvi
/usr/home/madhvi/timesheet
cp /etc/ftpaccess /terrasky/tslibrary/test/ftpaccess_test
