Are you sure that your shell is located in the same place?

ie: /bin/favourite_shell may have moved to /usr/bin/favourite_shell

Try this command

sh -x <shell script>

and check the output .
This command will execute each and every line of you script and show it on the bash prompt.
It is like debug mode.
