In sh you should use single squared brackets, not double ones those are not POSIX shell syntax (some shells may allow them but they are not part of the syntax). Debian uses a strict POSIX shell (dash) as /bin/sh
So if [ ! -e $HOME/$2/shoutcast.pid ] instead of if [[ ! -e $HOME/$2/shoutcast.pid ]]
It should give you a syntax error, but I doubt if it would cause the behavior you are describing.
