Have you tried isolating the problem in a new page? Like creating a new page, writing/adding a velocity macro (event with some static text content, it does not matter) and then saving the page to see if it is executed properly and that you get no error?

If you have problems with the scripts inside Main.Welcome (for example), you look at its "Last modified by" label, under the page title. That will tell you the user that last modified the page. The gotcha here is that the script right (just like the programming right) actually checks the last content author of that page, so the last user that changed the page's content (not the last user that added a comment for example, for that saved the page without changes, etc.). To make it easier, I`ve published this small app [1] that you can install with the Extension Manager and check the content author and the status of Programming and Script rights on a particular page. You need to identify who is the "content author" on the documents that contain scripts and that fail to work on your setup.
