Thanks for your message Hai,

I'm running on a cluster, but directly from its bash shell, as we have not
yet installed a queuing system. Shouldn't I see any error directly in the
shell?

are you running on a cluster? You might want to check the error log
specified by your script.

(e.g :

-output-file-in-qsub
