That sounds like a message from your shell saying it couldn't understand
how to process the first line of the script:

  #!/bin/sh

that says to use "/bin/sh" as the interpreter for the script.  Do you have
a "/bin/sh" on your system?  Standard RH 7.2 installs do -- I know that
for a fact because it's my usual development platform -- but something
could have gotten modified in your system.
