1)Check where is your ruby interpreter 
(from the shell : "which ruby").

Maybe you have another one in your path , and no perm over it.



*maybe*  try 

#!/path/to/env ruby 

instead of 

#!/path/to/ruby 

as

the first line of the script.

O il contrario :)


(last :

[loser@irc ted]$ ./tst.rb
bash: ./tst.rb: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
[loser@irc ted]$ cat tst.rb
#!ur/local/bin/ruby
puts "hello world
[loser@irc ted]$

Now, the path to ruby is wrong , I don't get your same error, but
trying costs nothing :)
