Thanks for the response Conor.
Permissions was my first guess as well, but I think I've exhausted that avenue. The apps fail to launch even on the system that created them. On that system I can go to the directory that I'm creating the package from, and launch the apps. But if I run the pkg installer on that same system, and go to the directory under applications and try to launch the newly installed copy of that file, it won't launch.
I've fiddled with the permissions set for the apps and subdirectory in Packages, even setting full unsecure rwx across the board for testing purposes, and still they don't launch. Most of the files were set to root:admin, but changing to root:staff didn't seem to have an effect.
I appreciate the tips on creating multiple component packages, but if I can't get this working, will probably just fall back to distributing in a dmg file. These old Director apps' days are numbered anyway, will eventually rewrite them in a better language and build them into a single application.
