I'm running CentOS 6.2, trying to run tasks through cron. I've verified crond is running

$ service crond status
crond (pid  20553) is running...

I have no /etc/cron.allow file, but I do have an /etc/cron.deny file that is empty.

I've checked the /var/log/cron file only to find entries of EDIT and RELOAD sessions, nothing being executed.

I did have some trouble with my system clock earlier today, and I think I resolved it. $ date and $ uptime both give back the correct time, but I can't execute hwclock commands for other issues. Should I look into problems with the hardware clock as the cause for nothing being executed or is there something else I'm forgetting here?

Turns out my problem was just a misnamed path to my commands. I couldn't figure out a decent way to output stderr for cron tasks. Once I got that working, I found my tasks were indeed running, just failing.
