I'm not sure if this is the problem, but I've seen that error from
shell scripts when the #! first line points to an incorrect command
interpreter.  So, for a shell script, if the first line is
#!/usr/sbin/bash, but bash is really /bin/bash, you'll get that error.
 It's misleading, since the shell script *is* there, it's the
interpreter that's missing.
