I ran into the same problem. In general to my knowledge cron for
security reasons uses what is essentially an empty environment subshell,
and won't source any profiles. I know we accomplished the same task, but
don't have specifics. Try adding an export of the environment to the
beginning of your crontab command line, and separate it with semi-colons
as if you were issuing a single command, similar to,
* * * * * export PERL5LIB=/path/to/dir; /run/your/command
See if that works. I know it is possible with Solaris' cron but I know
we had to mess with it for a while. If you have compiled modules with a
C component you may also have to mess with the LD_* environment
variables, we had to.
