Hi, I’m trying to install Matlab r2010b, this is what I typed and this is the error I get:

andres@linux-58ak:~> /home/andres/matu20Xb_iso/install &
[1] 4833
andres@linux-58ak:~> Preparing installation files …
Installing …
/home/andres/matu20Xb_iso/install: line 562: /tmp/mathworks_4833/java/jre/glnx86/jre/bin/java: cannot execute binary file
Finished

[1]+ Done /home/andres/matu20Xb_iso/install
andres@linux-58ak:~>

In the past I could install r2010a and made it this way, now, I don’t know what it is.
Please, need some help!!! :smiley:

Hmm… Are you sure Java is installed? I’m running MATLAB 2010a without problem.

How do I check that?

Howdy,
You can use YAST to install an approved JRE (Java Runtime Environment), do not select any of the “dev” versions and depending on the requirements of your application should either be v1.5 or v1.6.

It looks like the install script first copied its own version of Java but didn’t modify the permissions properly to make it executable.

HTH…

Hi I’m running opensuse 11.4 and I’m trying to install matlab r2010b but I’m taking the same error as aussa:

kostis@linux-3pn0:~/virtual-drives/1> ./install &
[1] 10076
kostis@linux-3pn0:~/virtual-drives/1> Preparing installation files …
Installing …
./install: line 562: /tmp/mathworks_10076/java/jre/glnx86/jre/bin/java: cannot execute binary file
Finished

I have java environment installed

kostis@linux-3pn0:~/virtual-drives/1> java -version
java version “1.6.0_20”
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.9.7) (suse-1.2.1-i386)
OpenJDK Server VM (build 19.0-b09, mixed mode)

Can you please give me any info on how to solve it?
Thanks in advance
