The problem is probably due to the fact that you are mixing two 
different things:
* call_scilab should be used when you want to use Scilab as a computing 
engine from a thirdparty applications
* api_scilab is used when you want to extend the features of Scilab by 
adding a new function.

SendScilabJob has not been designed nor tested to be used inside a gateway.
