Node exec doesn't have permission to execute script

Up until recently, it has worked fine, but when I tried to use it today, it did not work properly. It returns the following error:

Error: Command failed: /bin/sh -c /home/pi/RPi-Computer-Power/RPi-Server/routes/../scripts/hash.js 12345678 /bin/sh: 1: /home/pi/RPi-Computer-Power/RPi-Server/routes/../scripts/hash.js: Permission denied

I am extremely confused because when I try to run the script from the command line, it works perfectly; /home/pi/RPi-Computer-Power/RPi-Server/routes/../scripts/hash.js 12345 executes flawlessly.

This is the code where I try to execute the script. (index.js)

exec(__dirname+"/../scripts/"+req.params.script+" "+req.body.params, function(err, stdout, stderr) {
        console.log("err: ",err,"stdout: ",stdout,"stderr: ",stderr);
        if(err){
          res.send("<a href='/'>< Back</a> <b>Program Error:</b> "+err.toString());
          return;
        }
        //res.send("<a href='/'>< Back</a> <b>Program Output:</b> <div style='white-space:pre-line>'"+stdout+stderr+"</div>");
        res.render("programOutput", {output: stdout});
      });

If anyone has any help, thank you in advance. Neil
