backintime seems to be a graphical application, so you need to set DISPLAY https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cr … plications
Post your crontab.

here's my crontab

#Back In Time system entry, this will be edited by the gui:
0 15 * * * /usr/bin/nice -n 19 /usr/bin/ionice -c2 -n7 /usr/bin/backintime --backup-job >/dev/null 2>&1

Is your cron daemon running?
