I tested it both ways: from command line: $ open Client.app and by double-clicking. Your version with invoking ls | open -fe works, but when I change it to java -jar app.jar it's giving me that error.

@emptyset I call open Client.app Is this the Automator app. From what I understand in the automator you have the applescript code: do shell script "cd " & quoted form of (POSIX path of current_path) & " ;\"java -jar app.jar\"". So where are you using the open command ? which as far as I understand what you are doing, you do not need to use it. The clients will be using double click on the app and the app will run the java

Note that opening Client.app from Finder (double-click) also results in the same PowerPC error pop-up.

This is very close to a solution; I confirm the ls | open code definitely opens the directory I want, which is great. But when I call open Client.app, I get: LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error -10665 for the file <path-to-Client.app> - a few searches for what this error means suggested a permission issue, I checked and +x flags are set. I also tried this, and that didn't work (with same error).
