[partly solved] can't execute certain files via krusader

I am stuck with, e.g., this problem:

I am in krusader using the built in shell.
Doing:

./name_of_shell_script.sh

starts and runs the script without problems within krusader. Doubleclicking on the same shell script (its file representation in the file list) gives me the error message:

Could not start /path/to_the_scirpt/name_of_the_shell_script.sh

Doubleclicking on the same script in Dolphin runs the scripts as well. I deleted ~/.config/krusaderrc and ~/.kde4/share/krusader to give it a clean start, but I fear i screwed up something elsewhere since this doesn't help and nobody else seems to be affected by this.

Re: [partly solved] can't execute certain files via krusader

So I don't know why and when krusader became that sort of selective of which scripts to run or not - but:

If I add

#!/bin/bash

at the start of my scripts, krusader seems to run them again via context menu or via doubleclick. I was mislead by the fact that in earlier times this was not necessary and that other file managers like dolphin aren't this picky.
