[Koha] cleanup_database.pl

[Christopher Curry]

Forgot to mention the most important point (maybe it was obvious?):  
zebraqueue and sessions tables are not being cleared, even though syslog 
tells me the cmd was run.

I wish an error message would output to my log file, at least.  As it 
is, I'm not sure what else to try.

I'm not a cron master, so I assume I'm just missing something necessary 
for cron to function.   I've read the cron manual, but I cannot 
determine what, if anything, I'm missing.

Cheers,
