What is causing the sbatch script error "Unknown shell type 'load'"?

If you're getting the error message

init.c(379):ERROR:109: Unknown shell type load

when running your sbatch script, then your script is probably starting with the line

#!/bin/bash

To remedy this you need to make sure that your script starts with

#!/bin/bash -l

I.e. notice the trailing "-l". This tells bash to load the correct environment settings, which makes the module system usable.
