MATLAB: How to install only the license manager without a graphical interface on a Linux machine

license managerlinuxMATLABtext based

On my desk I used a Mac to download the Mac installer first, and by starting this to download only the Linux version. This created directory with the Linux stuff I copied to the target machine.
To have an automatic installation without the graphical interface on Linux, I duplicated the supplied “installer_input.txt” file to a new one and made the necessary changes like accepting the license, set the “lmgrFiles=true” and inserted the code for the file activation.
While this installs indeed the license manager, it always includes the complete MatLab package which I neither need nor want on this machine. This seems to be the default in case none of the products at the end of the input file are uncommented.
So the final question: what do I have to put in the input file for the installer to install the license manager only and avoid any installation of additional packages?

Thomas, you might want to try to download and installer from here. If that does not work out, please contact installation support.
