Can you give us a sketch of your script, like:

	#!/bin/bash
	<some variable settings>
	pushd <some working directory>
	# here the Java code starts with:
		<a cup of hot Java?>
	# the Java function to read:
	...
	# Here the Java code ends:
	<code>
	<shell code>
	# Final statement:
	...
	<shell script ends here with a newline>

Actual lines and line numbers (shell-command-on-region with pr -n - 
l9999) won't be bad. Maybe it's possible from seeing the code to see  
a design flaw or the actual cause ... Could be a log from your  
*shell* can provide further information.

You can also invoke your script as

	bash -x ./script.name

or put a line

	set -x

near the beginning (line #2ff) into it to see bash execute the lines.  
This might give additional insight.
