[Resolved] Unable to have Scheduled task running

Hello,
I have been trying for two days to have a scheduled task running.
But nothing happens. Even the mail notification. Nothing.

PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE

Plesk Panel 10.4.4 up to date
Ubuntu Server 10.04

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION AND STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Websites & Domains > Scheduled tasks

I tried different tasks like

* * * * * /bin/echo "foobar" >> /tmp/foobar.txt
or
* * * * * /usr/bin/wget -O - http://www.example.com/test.php
or
* * * * * php /war/www/the/complete/path/to/my/php/file

I also tried to change the "Access to the server over SSH" value from "forbidden" to something else.
I also tried to create the same tasks for root user. Nothing.

ACTUAL RESULT

Nothing ! No mail notification neither.

EXPECTED RESULT

At least the email notification...

ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I am desperate and tired of googling this problem.

Thank you.
