Yeah guys, my bad :-)

Let's explain what the problem was, it's such a laugh
I guess it happens to all of you who spent lot of time programming, it's was a 
stupid error which you don't notice cause you're stressed at the office

        if [ "$MAX_HOUR" != "$MIN_HOUR" ]
        then
                while [ $CURRENT_HOUR -lt $MIN_HOUR ] || [ $CURRENT_HOUR -gt 
$MAX_HOUR ]
                do
                        CURRENT_HOUR=`date +"%H"`
                        echo "Waiting to valid time ($MIN_HOUR - $MAX_HOUR, 
current $CURRENT_HOUR)" >> $LOGFILE.err
                        sleep 300
                done
        fi

That was the script, well as you can see CURRENT_HOUR is being declared INSIDE 
of the while loop, so....it was impossible to run if I didn't declare it 
before the loop :-)

Thanks!
