I have a PPC G4 450 MHz with 10.4.11 installed via MacOSXUpdCombo10.4.11PPC.dmg
I have absolutely no problem with a test script saved as either an application or application bundle from Script Editor. If you have not applied the Combo Update, you might want to do this.


If you saved as an application bundle, you should check that the value of CFBundleExecutable = "applet" in the Info.plist file and that the internal files in /Contents/MacOS/ and /Contents/Resources/ are also named "applet".

(I had a similar problem, a few years ago, where an application would be unlaunchable if its displayed name disagreed with CFBundleExecutable, but, I think this problem has been corrected.)

Create application with this script:

display dialog "Whatever"

Double click app in Finder.

Result: nothing

Works OK in script editor.
