MATLAB: How to set environment variables for MATLAB Production Server

getenvMATLAB Production Servermpssetenv

Best Answer

The variables a MPS app accesses are the system variables which the MPS server is running on. This means that they can be set, like other environment variables, through the machine's command prompt.

An alternative is to set this variable from within the MPS app itself with the MATLAB command:

setenv('NAME', 'VALUE')

Please refer to the "setenv" documentation for more information:

MATLAB: How to set a proxy server to use with the URLREAD and URLWRITE functions in MATLAB

In order to specify a proxy server for use in MATLAB, you will need to set two Java system properties: 'http.proxyHost' and 'http.proxyPort'. These properties correspond to the hostname of the proxy server, and the port that is used to connect to the proxy server, respectively.

If you are using MATLAB 7.0 (R14) or later versions, you can set these properties by going to "File -> Preferences -> Web". Then, check the "Use proxy to connect to the internet" checkbox and enter the values in the "Proxy server" and "Proxy port" editboxes.

If you are using a previous version of MATLAB, you will need to set these properties from the Command Window using the following commands:

java.lang.System.setProperty('http.proxyHost','myproxy.mycompany.com')
java.lang.System.setProperty('http.proxyPort','1234')

replacing 'myproxy' and '1234' with the appropriate values. You may want to add these commands to a startup.m file, so they are executed every time you start MATLAB. See the following for more information regarding startup.m:

http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_env/startup-options.html#brlkmbe-1

Alternately, use the following lines of code in your file:

com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLPrefs.setUseProxy(true)
com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLPrefs.setProxyHost('HostName')
com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLPrefs.setProxyPort('1234')
%%the proxy authentication is required
com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLPrefs.setUseProxyAuthentication(true)
com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLPrefs.setProxyUsername('test')
com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLPrefs.setProxyPassword('test')

If you are compiling and deploying your MATLAB code to a target machine, in order to set the same settings for your compiled application on the target machine, add the following lines to your MATLAB code before you compile:

if isdeployed
   com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLPrefs.setUseProxy(true)
   com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLPrefs.setProxyHost('HostName')
   com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLPrefs.setProxyPort('Port')
end

where 'HostName' is the name of the Proxy Host and 'Port' is the port number on which the user needs to connect to the proxy server.

MATLAB: Regarding MATLAB Production Server dashboard

I assume you machine is Windows. To setup MATLAB Production Server Dashboard, please read the following steps.

1. Install Visual C++ Redistributable Packages

Download Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013 from this link . Choose "vcredist_x64.exe".

2. Setup MATLAB Production Server Dashboard

Open Command Prompt and cd to $MPS_INSTALL\dashboard where $MPS_INSTALL is installation folder of MATLAB Production Server, for example, "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Production Server\R2018a".

cd C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Production Server\R2018a\dashboard
mps-dashboard.bat setup

Then, specify any folder (for example, C:\Work\MPS_Dashboard_Work) for Dashboard work folder.

3. (Optional) Configure Dashboard settings

If you want to change default port numbers for dashboard and database, Edit $MPS_INSTALL\dashboard\config\config.txt.

4. Start Dashboard

Open Command Prompt and cd to $MPS_INSTALL\dashboard, then do

 mps-dashboard.bat start

5. Access to Dashboard

Open web browser and access to http://localhost:9910 (by default port number) Login page will appear. Default account is User: admin and Password: admin

6. Creating MPS instance using Dashboard

After log in to Dashboard, click "Create New" for creating new MPS instance. Input Name and Description(Optional), click "Create".

After creating a instance, click a hyperlink of the instance, then go to "Application" tab. Click "Upload and Deploy New Archive" from triangle-bottom, and upload your .ctf file (which you've compiled from Production Server Compiler).

Next, go to "Settings" tab. Change MPS instance configurations as you like. For example,

Core -> MATLAB Runtime path

HTTP -> HTTP/HTTPS port number and edit CORS Allowed Origins

Worker -> Maximum Workers

License -> License server info

and click "Save" in the bottom and click green triangle in the top. MPS instance will be started.

Hope this would help you.
