Matlab interface with MWORKS

Hi Chris,

I am trying to setup the melba interface with MWORKS, but it seems like the commands

cd /Applications
ln -s MATLAB_R2016b.app MATLAB

return me the response " MATLAB" file already exists, and the Matlab interface does not show up in the MWORKS glass. I am not sure what my next steps should be in making this work. Thanks!

Hi Mahdi,

A couple things to check:

  1. Does the MATLAB symbolic link point to the correct version of MATLAB? To check, use the readlink command in the terminal:

     $ readlink /Applications/MATLAB
     MATLAB_R2016b.app
    

    If the output doesn’t match the installed version of MATLAB, then you need to remove and recreate the symbolic link.

  2. After creating or replacing the symbolic link, did you restart MWClient? This is required in order for the change to take effect.

Cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,

The command readlink /Applications/MATLAB does not return anything. Could
I pass by sometime tomorrow to your office to figure this out? I would
appreciate especially as I am planning experiments soon!

Thanks,
Mahdi
