Running a php script with crontab, strange problem!

Hi there,

 

I use Plesk and I want to have a crontab that executes every morning a php script.

 

$getcontent = file_get_contents("http://www.lollypop.gr");


// write them
$f=@fopen("/srv/***/httpdocs/test.txt","w"); // full path
   fwrite($f,$getcontent);
   fclose($f);
   

 

This script when is executed by crontab the txt file isn't updated, when the same script is executed by firefox all work ok. This is really strange. I double checked the full path ( although If it wasn't ok I would get an error ) and the rights of the file tha is indeed 0777.

 

Any ideas what is the problem here?
