You need to have /LocalApps in your path, not  
/LocalApps/Mathematica.app/Kernel.  If you did install it properly (all in  
/LocalApps, as you say) those scripts should be in /LocalApps *and*  
/LocalApps/Mathematica.app/Kernel.  But I would suggest that a better place for  
those scripts would be /usr/local/bin of /usr/bin.
