You indicate that you jumped from High Sierra to Big Sur. In between those was Catalina. In that version Mac OS switched the default script shell from bash to zsh. There *might* be an incompatibility in zsh causing your issue. You can try changing the default shell back to bash or else you can modify your script to call bash explicitly.
ie: modify the HydroV_dbg.scpt script to do: *do shell script "/bin/bash /VCTTools/bat/hdbgsub.sh"* will execute the script in bash instead of zsh. If you want to modify Mac OS to permanently switch the default shell back to bash, there are plenty of pages to help you: https://www.howtogeek.com/444596/how-to-change-the-default-shell-to-bash-in-macos-catalina/ HTH ~ Rich On Saturday, June 26, 2021 at 8:30:52 PM UTC-4 [email protected] wrote: > I don't know how /VCTTools got at the ROOT LEVEL.
