I have installed matlab 7.9 in ubuntu 9.10. I tried to launch it on the desktop using launcher. But as I double click on it it flashes but its not opening. After seeing previous posts somewhere it is given that matlab-desktop should be used. But I am not clear where to use it. How to create a desktop icon for matlab. It got solved by adding -desktop at the end of command.
View 2 Replies View Relatedi needed a new harddrive and installed a new system (10.04 - previously 8.04) on it.one of the things i wanted to install is matlab, however the installer doesn't do anything. I used the same iso image before on 8.04 and the install went smoothly.i cant even get it to display the options.so i untared all matlab related files out of my 8.04 backup.can i just copy those files to the right places in my new system? guess not,but maybe there aren't that many things to modify.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have never installed anything on Ubuntu from files, and I do not know how to do it. There are have been internet pages I have visited, but each one tells you to do it in a different method, and each one is more complicated that the last. So, I was wondering if anyone knows the simplest way of installing Matlab -
I have these files:
Code:
I have downloaded iso image of matlab provided by my school. As I mount the image using gmount, I saw number of files. One of the file name is 'install'. I imagine this is the file which will initiate the installation process, but don't know how to use it. Do I have to go to the mount folder in terminal and type sude install ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've followed the guide here for installing MATLAB. The installation completed successfully, however, the launcher created doesn't launch MATLAB as MATLAB isn't installed anywhere pointed to by $PATH. What's the best way of solving this - adding MATLAB's directory to $PATH (in which case how do I go about doing so), or (re)installing MATLAB to somewhere already in $PATH?

I installed MATLAB R2009a in my laptop (Fedora 14 x86-64), the installation was succesful but when I run MATLAB (in a console), appears a message: error while loading shared libraries: libut.so: cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Permission denied
I find a "solution", execute in a terminal: execstack -c libut.so
I used several times with differents libraries that I needed, but I run MATLAB in a terminal, MATLAB starts in a terminal, only a prompt ">>" and nothing.
I have been trying to install MATLAB 2008b as a standalone version; however, every time when the process runs to 18% it shows an error as follows: "There was an error extracting the archives for MATLAB compiler. Chceck that you have enough disk space and rerun the installer."
I did have checked the disk space which is much more than enough. I have also changed few different disks that are way more than enough as well, about 5GB at least, but this error still popped out when it runs to 18%.
what is the difference between Byobu Terminal and Terminal? i ask this because when i upgraded from ubuntu 10.10 to 11.4 i did not have Byobu Terminal
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install the Matlab 7.5 compiled runtime for 64-bit Linux (MCRInstaller.75.glnxa64.bin) and keep getting a "No Java Runtime Environment(JRE) was found on this system." error message.
I understand the JRE is bundled with MCRInstaller and will self-compile/install. However, I don't have admin access, could this be the source of the problem? If so, how could I fix it (not sure how to direct it to install locally without going into the source code)?
I got around this error before, but stupid me didn't write down what I did and I forgot.
I'm having a really annoying problem with matlab and I've finally resolved to fix it. I just can't paste in matlab at all. I can copy and cut, just not paste.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install Matlab on my computer. When I type
Code:
sudo sh /home/armen/Downloads/Matlab.R2010b.UNIX/matu20Xb/install
I get this error, which stops installation right away:

What can I do? Is it some problem with Java?
I'm suddenly having an odd problem after running Matlab successfully on my 10.10 system for a while.When I try to open Matlab now with
Code:
matlab -glnx86 -desktop
matlab only opens in console mode and doesn't load the jvm desktop. It doesn't report any errors. The command
Code:
version('-java');
gives no response.
If I try to run a command in the console such as plot, I get the following warning: Code: Warning: This functionality is no longer supported under the -nojvm startup option So, matlab is somehow starting with the -nojvm option even though I'm explicitly telling it not to with the -desktop flag. I don't know how this has suddenly changed today. When I first set Matlab up on Maverick a few weeks ago I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MATLAB to get the java stuff working properly. Does anyone have ideas on where -nojvm might be implicitly set or log files I can access to give me more info on why this might be happening?
I don't know why but when I put the installation dvd ib the dvd drive Ubuntu doesn't seem to recognize it at all. How am I supposed to install it? I know my DVD drive is working fine. It recognizes other dvds. But what's happening here?

I have installed Matlab into /opt/matlab and the file to run the program is located in /opt/matlab/bin and is called matlab. I created a file:
#! /bin/bash
/opt/matlab/bin/matlab
and placed it in /usr/bin.
From there, I can run matlab by typing 'matlab' in a Terminal window. My problem is that I created a link in my start menu with the command 'matlab' but all I get is the splash screen for 5-10 secs then the program crashes out. However, when I run it from a Terminal, it loads up just fine.
I'm having troubles with ubuntu Natty."Randomly" I'm thrown out back to the log-in page; I saw some threads online talking about xserver crashes but I didn't find any solution.I noticed it happens more often (but not always) when I use this matlab code to delete all the matlab figures.
Matlab code (not mine):
-----------------------
f = findobj(0);
f(f == 0) = [];
set(f, 'DeleteFcn', '')
f = findobj('Type', 'figure');;

I recently shifted from windows to Linux(Ubuntu). I need to install Matlab now. I have a windows version matlab software. How to install it in Ubuntu. Can install it using Wine?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to set up permissions for matlab (at least I think permissions is the problem). I haven't been able to find any conclusive instructions how to set permissions and the advice I see are often confusing or contradictory. I have installed matlab (64-bit version) using root account as that was recommended by the installer and everything seems fine except for the error message I got after installation:
[root@localhost User]# /mnt/dvd/install
The following messages were written to standard error while running 'xsetup' the X Window System version of 'install'.
xsetup: Unable to load required font.
Warning: This program is an suid-root program or is being run by the root user. The full text of the error or warning message cannot be safely formatted in this environment. You may get a more descriptive message by running the program as a non-root user or by removing the suid bit on the executable.
Warning: Cannot convert string "%s" to type %s
Check the content of the installation output file (backend):
/usr/local/lib64/matlab/install_matlab.out
Error messages found:
Warning: Permission Problem With MATLAB Files!
| Checked some files in your MATLAB root directory. These are bad:|
-r--r--r--. (not world readable) - ./toolbox/matlab/general/diary.m .....
Can I set up permissions to make it work afterwards? If so - how? I see the error message talking about the permissions being -r--r--r-- which I guess is only readable to all users. But should I set permissions to folders, executables or both? Was there anything I could have done before installation to make this work? I'm rather new to linux though I feel quite comfortable to work with the terminal. My system is fedora 13.
I found this excellent resource: [URL]. Though I'm still not sure how to set up permissions and I'm a bit hesitant as I don't want to create any security holes in my system. Would it be enough for me to give executable rights for my user to the program files in usr/local/bin? Now that I look at the permissions it seems I already have permission (through others...?) to the mentioned files.
