I broke my applescript

hi:

Macintosh beige g3, being run as a server. a number of applescripts
running on it via Cron to take care of various housekeeping tasks.

Everything was working fine under System 9.0.4. I upgraded to 9.1, and it
broke my applescript. I can't get it to work. Well, not completely, anyway.

The scripts will try to run but certain functions fail. In particular,
the scripting interpreter (? whatever the correct term is) won't
recognize things like the command "current date." It gives an error when
the script gets to this command. There are other such commands that break
in similar fashion but I don't have them at hand right now.

I tried reinstalling Applescript from the installation CD, but it still
is broken. I thought that maybe I was somehow missing some third-party
applescripting files or something, but I haven't been able to detect a
problem in this regard. All the files that were there under 9.0.4 still
seem to be there under 9.1, as far as I can tell.

Any suggestions? Thank you.
