If 'java -jar JBidWatcher-0.9.3.1.jar' works when run from the directory
the .jar file is located in, I would say the next step is to test your
shell script from the command line. See what errors it gives, copy/paste
them here and we can work from there.

(This assumes that the errors you listed for trying to JBidWatcher...jar
earlier was because you weren't in the same directory as JBidWatcher at
the time. If you were in the directory and it gave those errors, we'll
need to do more troubleshooting before we get to the shell script.)
