Problem starting a script from a 'main'-script

Problem starting a script from a 'main'-script
Please Help! 
I have a main script (ksh) where another script is called (convert_picture). Normally this works ok, but since some changes has been made on the unix-server (I dont know what
) suddenly it doesnt work anymore: i get an error message: ksh: convert_picture not found. I am logged in as the owner of all the scripts (and tools) so the rights are ok.
The line in the main-script looks like this (the script is been called wihtout sh or ./ and this usually worked ok):
convert_picture original_picture.jpg thumbnail.jpg
and the content of convert_picture (here a tool called Alchemy is called):
nice alchemy -j --y -Xb124 -Yb88 -+ -Q -o "$1" "$2"
What I don't understand is: I can see the file with ls of the vi editor, but when I try to execute it, it says 'not found'
Thanx in advance

installsieve
INSTALLSIEVE(1) General Commands Manual INSTALLSIEVE(1) * NAME
installsieve - user utility for managing sieve scripts SYNOPSIS
installsieve DESCRIPTION
installsieve is a utility that allows users to manage their sieve scripts kept on the server. OPTIONS
-v <name> View script with the given name. The script if retrieved sucessfully is output to standard output. -l List all of the scripts currently on the server. If one of the scripts is active a arrow is printed indicating that it is the active script. -p <port> Port to connect to. If left off this defaults to "sieve" as defined in /etc/services. -i <file> Install a file onto the server. If a script with the same name already exists on the server it is overwritten. Upon sucessfully putting the script on the server the script is set active. If <file> has the extension .script it is chopped when put on the server since sieve names may not contain a '.'. -a <name> Set <name> as the active script. The list of available names can be obtained from the '-l' option.. -d <name> Delete the sieve script on the server with <name>. -m <mechanism> Force installsieve to use <mechanism> for authentication. If not specified the strongest authentication mechanism is chosen. -g <name> Get the sieve script with <name> and save it to disk with a ".script" extension. If a file with that name already exists it is overwritten. -u <user> Userid/Authname to use for authentication; by default, the current user. CMU
