Jens,
Check the scripts' first line, the #! one. Be sure that it reference
bash and that the path used is also correct.
As in: #!/bin/bash
Be sure you have a /bin/bash.exe for the above to work.
If these are correct, try running one of the scripts using the
following:
bash -x script_name 2>&1 | tee script_dbg.txt
Depending on where the failure happens, you will see various amounts of
output on the screen. It should stop at the point where the problem
exists, hopefully providing a clue about what it is looking for.
