Cron error

On a 11iv3 system, when I give
>cmpt_tune -q
Examining the kernel configuration. Please be patient.
Compartmentalization is disabled in running configuration.

However, a previously working cronjob (in 11iv2) is now failing with the following message in syslog:
cmpt_tune -q
"Cron daemon - could not change the compartment for the job"

Any idea why? The format of the cron job is correct and the permissions for the application is correct as well, I am not sure though why it is failing now.

Re: Cron error

Shalom,

cron has no environment. It does not know where anything is.

Possibilities:
1) The command does not exist.
2) The command is not on the PATH which normally is null.

Hi,
Pete: The link provided seems to be incorrect. I got a "Page has been removed" sign. Can you please copy paste the correct link? Thanks.

Steven: I checked both your suggestions, the command exists in the mentioned absolute path. Thanks for your suggestion nevertheless.
