A couple of thoughts:
1.  Does the script have executable permissions?
2.  Is cron working at all? Add "58 11 * * 4 touch /tmp/cron.test" as
another cron job. Does the test file date change?
3.  Just for laughs, check the SELinux logs to see if there's an AVC. It
may be that the script that created and installed the file didn't set
the selinux permissions correctly.
