[ubuntu] Command Line: 'Error: This script must be run with bash'

SingingBush

can someone please explain why I'm unable to run this file. The error states I need to use bash but as displayed by 'echo $SHELL' - I am.

root@me-ubuntu:/home/unreal/ut-server# ls -l asu.*
-rwxrwxrwx 1 900 900 1119 2002-04-25 00:24 asu.sh

root@me-ubuntu:/home/unreal/ut-server# ./asu.sh
./asu.sh: Error: This script must be run with bash

root@me-ubuntu:/home/unreal/ut-server# echo $SHELL
/bin/bash

Why not just run

Code:

bash asu.sh
