You have to create a bash script, something like this

#!/bin/sh

JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_12

GROOVY_HOME=/home/jboss/groovy-1.7.5

export JAVA_HOME

export GROOVY_HOME

PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$GROOVY_HOME/bin:

export PATH

cd /home/jboss/jboss-4.2.1.GA/server/flt/conf/scripts

(Assuming that Groovy script located at /home/jboss/jboss-4.2.1.GA/server/flt/conf/scripts)

groovy -classpath /home/jboss/jboss-4.2.1.GA/server/flt/conf/scripts /home/jboss/jboss-4.2.1.GA/server/flt/conf/scripts/test.groovy

and within the crontab you can call your bash script
