Greetings,

I have a job in cron that works fine from the command line but when the cron job runs i get the following email:

find: 0652-009 There is a missing conjunction

*****************************************************************
    cron: The previous message is the standard output
    and standard error of one of the cron commands.

The cron entry looks like this:
15 02 * * * (/usr/bin/find /sapbc/Server/logs -name \*.log -mtime +30 -xdev -type f | /usr/bin/xargs rm -f)
20 02 * * * (/usr/bin/find /sapbc/Server/packages/SAP/logs -name \*.log -mtime +30 -xdev -type f | /usr/bin/xargs rm -f)

Ran from the command line it works fine. What does cron not like here?
