Ähm,

could you please post those scripts. Mostly if a script is doing nothing it has the wrong shell defined.

Eg.

#!/notThere/bin/osh

If the script has execute permission and returns directly to the prompt this is propably the reason. Check it by adding :

echo "Hello world or whatever"

to the script.
