I have an education license and trying to run matlab from a container. The image I'm using is matlab:r2022a.

This is the instruction I follow: https://www.mathworks.com/support/search.html/answers/101892-what-is-a-host-id-how-do-i-find-my-host-id-in-order-to-activate-my-license unfortunately it doesn't explain how to activate my license from a container. When I run matlab -c license.lic within in a container, it says the license file doesn't match the host id of the running container. This is expected because I assume everytime I launch a container, the host id would be different. In this case, how am I supposed to activate the matlab then?

Hi!

In my understanding, you have an individual educational license for MATLAB, and you would like to run MATLAB from a Docker container.

You can follow the instructions mentioned in the following link.

https://hub.docker.com/r/mathworks/matlab

To run the container your license must be configured for cloud use. Individual and Campus-Wide licenses are already configured for cloud use. If your license is correctly configured, then you will be prompted to sign in to your MathWorks Account and you must have an internet connection.

To license a MATLAB Docker image, you will require a running Network License Manager for MATLAB. You can find detailed instructions on how to administer network licenses by referring to the following link:

https://www.mathworks.com/help/install/administer-network-licenses.html

To learn how to set up the license for a MATLAB Docker image, you can refer to the following link:

If the above instructions are still unclear or unhelpful, I suggest reaching out to MathWorks support directly. You can find their contact information at the following link:

Hope this helps.
