How to Fix - This application requires the legacy Java SE 6 runtime in El Capitan 10.11



Try this first download the Beta version of 
Java for OS X 2015-001 Beta

Java for OS X 2015-001 beta installs the legacy Java 6 runtime for OS X 10.11 El Capitan.  
This package is exclusively intended for support of legacy software, and installs the same deprecated version of Java 6 included in the 2013-005 release. If you require Java for applets or other non-legacy uses it is recommended you download the latest version of Java from http://java.com.
