Could not communicate with helper application

Hi guys,

Using Automator I have created 3 workflows and then a "master" workflow to perform each of the 3 workflows one after the other and then loop back to the start.

The workflows all work fine when run on their own, but when run from the "master" flow it's gets halfway through the second workflow and I get the "Could not communicate with helper application" error message.

The action it seems to be failing on is a Shell Script where I generate a random number and set it as a variable.

Does anyone know where I'm going wrong?
