php exec(python script): permission denied

On a Raspberry 5, I execute the following php code

$id = 0;
$message = exec("/home/pi/Python/hps_get_voltage_fraction_from_mcp3008.py ".$id." 2>&1");
return $message;

I get the following response:

sh: 1: /home/pi/Python/hps_get_voltage_fraction_from_mcp3008.py: Permission denied

The ownership/permissions are set as follows:

pi@raspberrypi:~/Python $ ls -l
total 4
-rwxrwxrwx 1 www-data www-data 372 Dec  2 18:18 hps_get_voltage_fraction_from_mcp3008.py

The whoami

return exec('whoami');

responds with:

www-data

I tried changing ownership of the script; all to no avail. I also tried executing through sudo, but I get prompted for a password when I exec(sudo...).

Platform info:

pi@raspberrypi:~/Python $ cat  /etc/os-release
