    Hello,

       I have a Script that runs fine in interactive mode.
    When I run the command without the Script
    using cron then I get the following error:

    sh: GENERIC: execute permission denied

    ******************************************************
    Cron: THe previous message is the standard output
             and standard error of the following crontab command:

    * /usr/bin/touch /usr/users/noaccess

    Thank you in advance for all of your help.
