Not running on Mac with Java 1.8

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have Java 1.8 on OSX 10.9.5. When I launch DIYLC it says I need a Java SE 6 
runtime and offers to install one for me. But I don't want to alter my Java 
setup, it's temperamental on the Mac at the best of times. Should DIYLC run 
under Java 1.8? Is there anything I need to do to enable it? Thanks, Geoff

it should run with 1.8. Did you enable 3rd party apps?

You mean in System Preference/Security & Privacy/"Allow apps from anywhere"? 
Yes, I did enable that. Are there any logs files, etc. I can look at/send?

In case it helps, when I run java -version this is what I get:

java version "1.8.0_40"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_40-b27)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.40-b25, mixed mode)
