If you look at this

#!/usr/local/bin/math8.0.4/MathematicaScript -script

$HistoryLength=0;
$pwf=FileNameJoin[{NotebookDirectory[],FileBaseName[NotebookFileName[]]}];
$pwf = "test";
$parameterfile=StringJoin[$pwf,".dat"];
Print[$pwf];
Print[$parameterfile];

you will see that both Print statements work just fine - What requires the FrontEnd are the Notebook*XY*[] functions and since this is a script and not a notebook these are not avaiable. So you'd need to replace those. You could, for example use $InputFileName and derive the information from that instead.
