When a script file is loaded into memory for execution of any function (onOpen or any other function), all global variables are loaded/executed. Your issue stems from attempting to get the active(getActive*()) document under AuthMode.None.

If you can get to Ui without getting to getActive() that's possible. But you're attempting to access the document inbetween:

SpreadsheetApp .getActiveSpreadsheet() ? SpreadsheetApp.getUi().

The bolded part is causing the issue. SpreadsheetApp.getUi() will work fine.

You can also try try{...}...catch(e){} instead.
