Exucuting a cron job by root rusults in the following eror:
top: tcgetattr() failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
The script is under a user name and runs fine from the command line.
The script runs "top -bn1", then totals the %memory used and appends
to a file.

This has now happened 3 times on my customers 59H running 4.3.2-
The cron daemon is running OK, but no jobs scheduled by
"crontab" or "at" will run, the only way I got them to run was
to kill the cron daemon. It then re-spawned and all was OK.
Any ideas why this should happen?
