Blacklisted Shell Script?

A few days ago a bash shell script that had been working reliably for months, suddenly quit working. The script has not been changed. I see no error messages either from cron, or from manual invocation of the script. It's as if I hadn't invoked it. I wrote a trivial test script that works both manually, or via cron (invoked via my crontab entry). But my desired script produces nothing. Where do I look to see a hint? Nothing in /var/log/cron or /var/log/messages suggests any problem. Given that a shell script will work as demonstrated by my test script (both from a terminal or via cron), why did my desired script suddenly quit working, silently? Has my OS blacklisted it?
