I was shocked to hear Sanjay Chitte say:

you need to add a path to your 'Permitted Output Paths' in
pvengine.ini, or set 'Options' -> 'Script I/O Restrictions' to None

You may also need to make sure that write privileges on that directory
since it appears that you are sending output to a shared network
directory.

It could be any or all of these.  Check your docs under in section 1.4
under I/O restrictions for specifics.
