That shell script presumably does some stuff first before invoking it; maybe
that's where the problem originates. Also, you're running it from "sh" in
that situation, instead of "bash" as you do from the command-line; that might
be relevant or might not. ("sh" is an alias for "bash" that invokes it with
slightly-altered behaviour.)

Adding "-x" flag to the shebang might help.

Try not using mixed slashes. Both Cygwin and DOS should be fairly happy with
APP4_COMMON_ROOT = C:/dev/prj/app4/Common
