MATLAB: Don’t I get the network license manager scripts for R2007a when using the text based installer on Solaris

MATLAB

I used the text based installer to install just the network license manager for R2007a on Solaris. After the installation I am missing various scripts.

Best Answer

This is a bug in the installer for Solaris. To workaround this issue you can run the following script to restore the necessary network license manager scripts:

$MATLAB/install_matlab 4

(where $MATLAB is the root MATLAB folder on your machine)

Alternatively you can use the GUI installer which will create the appropriate scripts.

MATLAB: Do I get TMW_ARCHIVE license checkout failed when installing the MATLAB Student Version on Linux

This behavior results when the Installer cannot locate product files for your MATLAB Student Version. Typically this occurs if you have downloaded only the installer, or if the matlab_installer_glnx86.tar file is extracted into a separate folder than all of the other downloaded files. To resolve this issue, see the solution below:

1) Make sure you have downloaded all of the files for installation. You should have a matlab_installer_glnx86.tar file as well as an file that starts with "stu_" for each product (ex: stu_matlab_glnx86.tar, stu_simulink_glnx86.tar). If you are missing any of these files, go back and download the rest.

2) Once you have all of the files, open a terminal and change directories to your downloads folder. For example, if they are saved in a Downloads folder in your home directory, you would run the command:

cd ~/Downloads

3) Next, extract only the matlab_installer_glnx86.tar file using the command:\n

tar -xvf matlab_installer_glnx86.tar

4) Once extracted, launch the installer using the command:\n\n

./install

You should now be able to install without an error. If you still experience an issue installing, contact Installation support here:

MATLAB: Am I unable to I activate a Solaris Host ID for a network license

Since support has been dropped, Solaris is no longer recognized as an available operating system to activate. However, it is possible to generate a license file for a Solaris license server by contacting support.

Please include the Host ID and license number.

To find the Host ID on Solaris:

1. Open a terminal window.

2. In the terminal window, run the command:

hostid

NOTE: To install the license manager for Solaris you will need to use R2009b media since it was the last version to support Solaris.
