This IS an Apple issue.

> Honestly, I do not understand why SciLab has to use be Java 6 ?!! Seems backwards to me. There was a way to tell old java apps to use the new up-to-date java. I just do not remember how I did this anymore.

> So after installing Catalina, Scilab does not work anymore. It must have removed my java links/fix. Once I figure it out again, I let you know. Cheers Willi 

The first thing you can do is to launch Scilab from the command line and post the error message.
