Hi

Are the files in the same path?
If not, either put them in the same, or considider putting relative or absolute paths in front of the filenames.

Hope this helps

Try:-
Code:
source ./variable.sh

OR
Code:
source /full/path/to/variable.sh

Ensure permissions are set correctly for 'variable.sh'...
