To prevent such errors in the future here are some ideas:

place the path to scripts and files in general into variables
then expand those vars when you want to write the path inside a file.

write tests to check if the path to a given file inside a config file
really exists, make them triggered by jenkins, never misspell a file
again (at least not in a release) :)

PS: There is also a test framework for bash, called bats:
