not 100% sure to be honest, if you installed with sudo ./coldfusion.bin then it will use the correct permissions.
The error message is very clear that the file can't be accessed due to permissions, but what you have showed seems to be fine. I'll need to double check my VPS install on the permissions but it sounds like what you have is fine. Also it is never a good idea to log in as root, and you would be better of logging in as a user and using sudo. If you are 100% behind a firewall or not internet or public network you will be fine, but it is a good habit to get out of anyway.
