RMAN Backup Script not running in cron tab

Question

Hi,
I am having rman backup script which is being executed successfully through shell.
but when scheduled in cron the script is being called but RMAN commands are not getting executed.
i have scheduled cron using oracle user.
Attached below the rman script for taking LEVEL 1 backup
#! /bin/ksh
DATE=`date +%Y-%m-%d`
export ORACLE_SID=ACIDC
export ORACLE_BASE='/home/app/oracle/product/10.2.0'
PATH=$PATH:${ORACLE_HOME}/bin
export PATH
export ULIMIT=unlimited
export ORA_NLS33=$ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls/admin/data
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/network/lib
export LIBPATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib
export TNS_ADMIN=$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
rman TARGET= / << EOF > /oraclebkp/rmanlogs/ACIDC/$DATE.log
backup incremental level 1 database;
report obsolete;
delete noprompt obsolete;
exit;
EOF
exit 0
Attached cron script
SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/bin
10 17 * * 2 /oraclebkp/rmanscripts/rmandclvl1.sh 2>&1 >/oraclebkp/cronlogs/delobs.log
Files delobs.log
and oraclebkp/rmanlogs/ACIDC/$DATE.log are being created but with 0 bytes .
Thanks in Advance

rman TARGET= / << EOF > /oraclebkp/rmanlogs/ACIDC/$DATE.log Change this line to and try..
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman TARGET= / << EOF > /oraclebkp/rmanlogs/ACIDC/$DATE.log
