You (oracle) are not allowed to use this program (crontab)

Problem:
$ crontab -e
You (oracle) are not allowed to use this program (crontab)
See crontab(1) for more information
Solution:
cd /usr/lib/cron or /etc directory
## or find where cron.allow and cron.deny are:
## find / -name "cron.allow"
## find / -name "cron.deny"
Either remove your user in
cron.deny
and add your username in
cron.allow
If files do not exist, we can create them.
