Is source_dir the name of the directory and does a directory by that name exist in Your current working directory?
Or is source_dir a variable?
Please, when someone asks for a sample of the script, one line is seldom enough and also any error messages You get from running the script would be very helpful.
Otherwise, the possibilities can be just too many.
