I had several issues trying to install matlab R2010a on my ubuntu 12.04 and I don't want anyone to go through the troubles I got in so this is how you do it:
1. if you have your Matlab in an iso file don't use "Furius iso mount" to mount it. if you do so you will have permissions issues. Instead, mount it the old school way:
4. for activating Matlab go to the bin directory in the Matlab base directory /usr/local/matlab and run the command:
1. if you have your Matlab in an iso file don't use "Furius iso mount" to mount it. if you do so you will have permissions issues. Instead, mount it the old school way:
- sudo mkdir /media/matlab
- sudo mount matu2k8a.iso /media/matlab/ -t iso9660 -o loop
- sudo mkdir /usr/local/matlab
- sudo ./install
4. for activating Matlab go to the bin directory in the Matlab base directory /usr/local/matlab and run the command:
- sudo ./activate_matlab.sh
- mkdir ~/.matlab
- sudo chown -R ${USER}:${USER} ~/.matlab
- sh /usr/local/matlab/bin/matlab
