I'm guessing that the proper permissions on the file were not set.

I completed my new FAQ entry just in time. Click here. The file probably needs "755".

Check out the empeg-preinit program I linked in one of my empegVNC annoumcements. I think it's the most recent one. Your script to start empegVNC should look something like:
#!/bin/sh

/empeg/bin/empegVNC
Note that the empegVNC distribution has an FTP script that should have changed the permissions for you.
