At first I thought that your PATH did not include the current directory,
but I could not reproduce your problem by removing the current directory
from my PATH.

The following is a WAG...  What is the contents of the first line of
your script?  Does it point to a nonexistent shell on your system
(possibly /bin/sh)?

I can duplicate your problem with the following shell script:

--- begin a j.sh ---
#!/bin/sh2
echo hello
--- end a j.sh ---

    $ j.sh
    bash: ./j.sh: No such file or directory
    $ bash j.sh 
    hello

If I happen to be correct, then either change "#!/bin/sh" to
"#!/bin/bash" in your script or install /bin/sh (ie, ash).
