Permission denied still after chmod 755 vlc.exe.manifest

Hi there, I am using Cygwin to compile the v0.9.8a source code and the compilation was done. However, I got permission denied when I tried to run vlc.exe. I did change the mode of both the vlc.exe and vlc.exe.manifest to 755. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!
Ps. I've done this before with v0.8.6 and it worked.

Sorry. I forgot to write this in the previous post. After the compilation finished, I did the "make package-win32-base" and then changed directory to vlc-0.9.8a and changed mode of vlc.exe and vlc.exe.manifest to 755. So I've done this, but still not working. Anything else I can do to solve this?

Changed to 777 but still got the "Permission denied". I just tried with version 0.9.6 and everything works fine.
Alright, I will try to recompile v0.9.8a again and see if it's working or not.
Thanks anyway.

just rename the vlc.exe.manifest to something else, it worked for me.
