Check the logs - or post them here.

If you can run the perl one, it looks like a permission issue when its
run by Nagios.Try the following; Check the user that Nagios is running
as (it varies from OS). Then attempt to run the script as the Nagios
user and see if you get the same result.

For the shell thats not running at all - try running it in debug mode
(from the your shell) $export_DEBUG=on

Then run the script using the -x to see the commands as they are
executed. If there's something failing you will pick it up from here.

bash -x ./scripname.sh


HTH,
