[SOLVED] Script returns value in debug but not in cron

[spdrmonkey]

I have a fully updated system running cacti 0.8.7b-r2 (from gentoo ebuild) and spine 0.8.7a (also from gentoo ebuild). This system works properly except for my newest custom temperature monitor. When using either cmp.php or spine when run from cron the log shows:

(with spine)

However, if I run spine from the command line as so:
cacti4 / # spine --verbosity=5 1 1
SPINE: Using spine config file [/etc/spine.conf]

Everything appears to work. I am at a loss, I have tried to change the way my script responds and there is no change. This host monitors 7 other hosts and uses other custom templates with no problems.

Any help is greatly appreciated, if you need further information I will happily provide it.

Chalk this up to bad user permissions, this script was accessing a fuse file system, which even though has permissions of 755 across the board, you must pass extra options at mount time to allow other users to access. Sorry to bother the board.
