There is a bug in sh-4.0 source command:
Must specify directory (./file) for filename, without not work.

sh-4.0# cd /tmp
sh-4.0# echo aaa=ppp > sourcefile
sh-4.0# ls -l sourcefile -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8 3 ago 20:37 sourcefile sh-4.0# cat sourcefile aaa=ppp sh-4.0# . sourcefile sh: .: sourcefile: file not found sh-4.0# source sourcefile sh: source: sourcefile: file not found
sh-4.0# echo $aaa

sh-4.0# source ./sourcefile sh-4.0# echo $aaa
ppp
sh-4.0# exit

hope this help.
It's not a bug, it's supposed to work that way. The behavior can be changed by:
sh-4.0# PATH=$PATH:.

Assuming that it's a Bourne shell or bash. This sets the current directory into the search path for executables. If it's not there you have to specify a full or relative path for the executable.
