Well, yeah, that's obviously not going to work.  The "/path/to" is
virtual; you're supposed to replace that with the actual path to
Gnucash.app!!  So if Gnucash.app is in /Applications, then you would use
/Applications/Gnucash.app/...   Or if you had it in /FooBob it would be
/FooBob/Gnucash.app/...
