I am missing something here, CANNOT INSTALL MATLAB7
i hope the answer to this will be very simple
I downloaded matlab7_R14 in 3 iso format.
Firt i tried to install it from the iso's by mounting them on the hard disk.
Everything was going ok when i finally got a message saying:
Setup aborted . . .
The installer cannot be run when your current directory is on the CD.
Change to the target MATLAB installation directory and rerun the installer.
Then i was told to try and burn the cd and try again. I did that to but the same problem occurs.
The instructions say just 'call' ./install from the place where the cd is mounted.
I also tried different options of install but nothing.
I also read the install file and i got nothing it should work
i tried with ./install -glnx86 for suse 10.0 matlab. after installation i tried to setup flexlm. i ran commond
./install_matlab 4 -glnx86
it ran properly. but when i tried lmstat then output was showing a problem. output is below:
phy15:/usr/local/matlab/etc/glnx86 # ./lmstat

I was surprised to see that there was no /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/license.dat file for me. I created /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/ and copied licence.dat and license.lic here
again i tried with lmstat

[root@JeeHwang /]# cd /media/MathWorks_R14_1/
[root@JeeHwang MathWorks_R14_1]# ./install
Setup aborted . . .
The installer cannot be run when your current directory is on the CD.
Change to the target MATLAB installation directory and rerun the installer.
[root@JeeHwang MathWorks_R14_1]# cd /usr/local/matlab7
[root@JeeHwang matlab7]# /media/MathWorks_R14_1/install
(install is work!!)
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
(in install document)
Note. Do not move to the newly mounted CD-ROM directory. Depending on
which products you are installing, the installer might require you to insert
another product CD during installation.
in short, run '(iso or cd mounted directory)/install' in another directory.(not mounted directory)
i wish it will be help
