Hi ariza,

I suggest you create debugging output of your script, like this:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

function _debug { echo "$1" >>/tmp/yourlogfile.txt ; }

_debug "trying to run command ..."
some_command 2>>/tmp/yourlogfile.xt

The expected problem is that the environment of the webserver, where your script runs is different from your testing environment, which supposedly is a normal system user.
