My guess would be that PATH isn't what you think it is, for some reason.
On my system, "date" and "cat" are in /bin and "id" is in /usr/bin, so if your
PATH doesn't include /bin for some reason this would do it.

You might also try removing all the ">>/tmp/script.log" bits, and instead
adding "exec >>/tmp/script.log 2>&1" as the first line after #!/bin/sh
