Trying to get a cron job to execute one particular php file

Question

Hi All I'm trying to make crontab execute a php file, currently set it to 5 minutes for a test (but the reality will be 1 day and 7 days)

Here's what i put now:

*/5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php $HOME/webapps/PATHTOSCRIPT/email.php
*/5 * * * * php -q /home/MYSERNAME/webapps/PATHTOSCRIPT/email.php
*/5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php /home/MYSERNAME/webapps/PATHTOSCRIPT/email.php

But it doesnt seems to send any result (the result should be an email reminder)

Anything wrong with my cron?

Thanks!
