crontab

I want automatic upgrade_export tools that do backup of my sistem.
I use SPLAT for check point.

[Expert@MNGFW01]# crontab -e:

50 12 * * * cd /opt/CPsuite-R62/fw1/bin/upgrade_tools
51 12 * * * echo | ./upgrade_export appoggio
25 13 * * * oggi=`date`
26 13 * * * mv appoggio.tgz.tar $oggi
27 13 * * * scp $oggi root@172.28.121.16:/data/backup_2008

[Expert@MNGFW01]# less /var/log/cron

Apr 30 12:50:00 MNGFW01 CROND[22798]: (root) CMD (cd /opt/CPsuite-R62/
fw1/bin/upgrade_tools)
Apr 30 12:51:00 MNGFW01 CROND[22806]: (root) CMD (echo | ./
upgrade_export appoggio)
Apr 30 12:52:24 MNGFW01 crontab[22820]: (root) LIST (root)
Apr 30 12:53:19 MNGFW01 crontab[22821]: (root) LIST (root)
Apr 30 12:54:14 MNGFW01 crontab[22827]: (root) BEGIN EDIT (root)
Apr 30 12:54:26 MNGFW01 crontab[22827]: (root) END EDIT (root)
Apr 30 13:25:00 MNGFW01 CROND[22966]: (root) CMD (oggi=`date`)
Apr 30 13:25:54 MNGFW01 crontab[22972]: (root) LIST (root)
Apr 30 13:26:00 MNGFW01 CROND[22974]: (root) CMD (mv appoggio.tgz.tar
$oggi)
Apr 30 13:27:00 MNGFW01 CROND[22980]: (root) CMD (scp $oggi
root@172.28.121.16:/data/backup_2008 )
Apr 30 13:28:30 MNGFW01 crontab[22988]: (root) LIST (root)
Apr 30 13:29:30 MNGFW01 crontab[22997]: (root) BEGIN EDIT (root)
Apr 30 13:30:05 MNGFW01 crontab[22997]: (root) END EDIT (root)

If I run commands without crontab all ok!
With crontab run upgrade_export but does not create anything!

What happens?
Where is the error?

Write the commands in a script and run it in crontab. Each line of the
crontab is executed in a separate shell.
