Hello:
Many thanks to

The root cause is the file /usr/bin/crontab does not have setuid root
enable.
My original question was:
===============================================================
I am trying to create my own cron job. I use the command crontab -e. After
save my entry, I receive the following messages:
"/tmp/aaaaaktza" 1 line, 45 characters
crontab: cannot create your crontab file in the crontab directory.
The protection of the /var/spool/cron/crontabs is:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root system crontabs
We don't have the file /usr/lib/cron/cron.allow. File
/usr/lib/cron/cron.deny does exist, but there is nothing but comments,
without any account id.
The protection setting of /usr/bin/crontab is:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root bin /usr/bin/crontab
================================================================
Have a nice day.
