iPhoto does not run in Catalina. Photos replaced iPhoto several years ago. Photos can upgrade your library. Launch Photos with the option key held down. From the resulting dialog, choose your iPhoto Library. Photos will create a new Library with your iPhoto media. Your iPhoto Library will not be changed. Prepare for a bit of a learning curve, Photos works a little differently than iPhoto.
