Is this some kind of guessing game? :-/

Just give us the code and the exact error message. Then we can tell you
the reason for *this* case. It sounds like a syntax error to me.

As this is a big program, and I don't know exactly at which line am 
getting the error, so can't post the whole code, is there any way to 
find exactly at which line this error has occured/occurring?

The error message should say that (along with the file name). For 
example, when I put a "break" on the top level, I get the message

(some path)/main.rb:11: Invalid break
(some path)/main.rb: compile error (SyntaxError)

So the error is on line 11 of main.rb

What's the exact error stack?

something like

a.rb:1:in `<main>': undefined local variable or method `hello' for
main:Object (NameError)

or just post the error message.

   Please check executor.rb, line 141 and show us what's there (and
around there).
