I am using set -e to stop execution of a script on first error.

The problem is that this does not tell me what went wrong.

How can update a bash scr

    Instead of set -e, use an ERR trap; you can pass $BASH_LINENO in to get the specific line number on which the error occurred. I provide a script taking advantage of this in my answer at https://stackoverflow.com/a/185900/14122

    To summarize:

    error() {
       local sourcefile=$1
       local lineno=$2
       # ...logic for reporting an error at line $lineno
       #    of file $sourcefile goes here...
    }
    trap 'error "${BASH_SOURCE}" "${LINENO}"' ERR

    1. make err.sh

      set -e
      trap 'echo "ERROR: $BASH_SOURCE:$LINENO $BASH_COMMAND" >&2' ERR
      
    2. include it (. err.sh) in all your scripts.

    3. replace any

      ... | while read X ; do ... ; done

      with

      while read X ; do ... ; done < <( ... )

      in your scripts for the trap to give the correct line number/command in the error message

    You can't use set -e by itself because processing will immediately stop after any error. Take a look at the Set Builtin section of the Bash Reference Manual for more information about the -x and -v options, which you can use for debugging.

    Something like:

    set -e
    set -v
    

    will exit on any error, while showing you each input line as it is read. It will not, however, show you just the line with the error. For that, you will need to do your own explicit error checking.

    For example:

    set +e
    if false; then
        real_exit_status=$?
        echo 'Some useful error message.' >&2
        exit $real_exit_status
    fi

    set -ex will show (all) lines as they are executed and stop at the first command returning nonzero (not as part of if/while/until constructs).

    Have you tried with --verbose?

    bash --verbose script.sh
