It is obvious that you have no permission to access the folder. You need to check who (user) owns the current folder and what the permission is set to.

PS: A script, to me, means it does not need to be compiled in order to run, such as Perl, Ruby, Python, etc. A snippet or code portion, however, needs to be compiled before it can be used to run.
