The "chmod 777 filename" command will change the permissions so that you can be certain that it will run. It is however not always wise to enable all the permissions. You might want to try the following command instead which only sets the executable bit and doesn't change the read and write permissions to the file: "chmod +x filename"
The reason why it is not found is because the location directory of the program is not added to the path. If you want to be able to run that program from anywhere they you could add the location to the environment variable path. The ./ just indicates that it should run the program from the current directory.
