The error indicates, to me at least, that there is some kind of problem with the Bash shell executable. Have you confirmed that /bin/bash actually exists? Are the permissions of the executable set correctly? Here's how they look on an OL6 VM I have running:

[root_at_12cR1EE ~]# ls -l /bin/bash
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 903272 Dec 19 2012 /bin/bash
