it could be that the webserver chroot()'s to some "secure" path,
and thus your script cannot find `date`.

perhaps all you have to do is to copy the binaries
that you need into the "safe" directory (if you can
first find out where the server is chroot()ing to)

if you think that your server is doing this, 
read up on "sandboxing", it might help you get a better
picture of what's going on.
