Hi @priyank-1, could you [upload your code to GitHub](https://docs.codecrafters.io/features/publish-to-github) and share the link? It will be much easier to debug if I can run it directly.

> Failed to execute /app/your\_program.sh: fork/exec /app/your\_program.sh: permission denied

The failure seems to caused by missing execution permissions.

You can fix them by running this command:

```auto
chmod +x .codecrafters/*

```
