whats wrong with my crontab?

hi ...redhat as 3

*/5* * * * cactiuser /www/php/bin/php /www/htdocs/cacti/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1

this is the line I have in the crontab file. when I log in as cactiuser and run /www/php/bin/php /www/htdocs/cacti/poller.php it brought up graphs and put information into them, this is why i think that it is my crontab file

thanks for any help

ok it worked that one time that I ran the command but then it stopped working, I ran it as cactiuser.
cacti.log says:
05/25/2006 10:03:14 PM - SYSTEM STATS: Time:4.1548 Method:cmd.php Processes:1 Threads:N/A Hosts:3 HostsPerProcess:3 DataSources:41 RRDsProcessed:28

i works if I manually do it, so I am back to my first opinion of it being the crontab

You needed to have a space after the /5 in your crontab. In your first post, it looked like /5* instead of /5 *
