<p class="MsoNormal">The idea behind SCIHOME is to have a version specific directory to avoid any issues when upgrading from Scilab versions to Scilab versions ; IMHO implementing an upgrade for files stored into this directory is for me a non-sense ; the upgrade
could be done manually (as Samuel described) for the few users that copy the files between SCIHOMEs.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The version of Scilab which generated the configuration.xml should be contained in some attribute of the top level element, i.e.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p> <Profile name="scilab" version="6.1.1"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p>This would allow to trigger a proper upgrade of the file when the Scilab version differs or a regeneration if the file cannot be upgraded.<o:p></o:p></p>

This kind of error might arise when the content of the SCIHOME directory of a previous scilab version is copied into the SCIHOME of the current 6.1.1 version, for instance to avoid respecifying all users preferences.<br>
Unfortunately, when the template of some configuration file is changed from one version to the next one, the file must be regenerated.<br>
<br>
The issue should be fixed either by deleting the SCIHOME/configuration.xml file, and regenerating it automatically from scratch (quit Scilab and rerun it),<br>
or by editing it and changing or adding the line just before the </Profile> one, for instance with<o:p></o:p></p>
