You have to first change the permissions on run.sh to make it executable.  Try this (from the bin directory):

chmod a+x *.sh

Then try running it again:

./run.sh

By the way, su is the 'switch user' command used to switch to any user. In your case, you asked to switch to the user whose name is "./run.sh" and the system asked you for the password for that user. Not what you intended. To run something as 'root', you could enter:
su
(enter the password for root)
./run.sh

or do the following:

sudo ./run/sh
(enter your password)

Of course, to use sudo you have to first configure it (Ubuntu does this automatically, not sure if OS/X does)
