Can't install any toolboxes because can't write to /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017
显示 更早的评论
I have not been able to install any toolboxes because the installation runs into PermissionDenieds on /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017/. I've included a logfile /tmp/mathworks_pjhellemn.log below which includes the error. I tried running Matlab with sudo, but my license is only for user pjhellemn and not for root, so Matlab would exit with a License Manager Error -9. I also ran "sudo chmod -R 777 *" at /usr/local/MATLAB/ before trying to install the toolbox, but then ended up getting "java.io.IOException: Error 1 setting permissions for /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017a/toolbox/local/pathdef.m. Operation not permitted" (also in the logfile below, but nearer to the bottom).
I am running Ubuntu 16.04. I'm using R2017 and trying to install the Bioinformatics toolbox right now, but I've had this same issue with R2016 and the Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox. I am installing Matlab by downloading the zip, extracting it, and then running "sudo ./install" in the proper directory, and using all defaults in the installation.
Since trying "chmod 777" I have deleted the Matlab installation directory ("sudo rm -rf /usr/local/MATLAB/") and freshly installed, but am running into the same problems.
How do I get around these permission / licensing errors?

/path/to/installation/directory is the path to your matlab installation if you type matlabroot the matlab terminal it will tell you e.g
sudo chown -R $LOGNAME: /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017b
change the path accordingly to matlabroot's output
Thats it

Walter Roberson
2022-10-24
matlabroot is a MATLAB command that would hae to be executed inside MATLAB. If you are operating inside MATLAB but the command fails, then you likely need to reinstall MATLAB.
matlabroot reports back the directory that MATLAB was installed into. If you are operating outside of MATLAB, there might be other ways to determine that information.

Had a similar problem. Try Running it as a superuser: sudo Matlab
Then run the add on manager and download the ones you want.
If this does not work, you can try changing permissions of the installation folder using
sudo chmod -R o+rw /usr/local/Matlab/R2017X
(careful with this step, reading about permissions in Ubuntu recommended)

If you want to avoid messing with folder permissions, here's what worked for me:
- Add an addon like normal until you get the permission error.
- Open a terminal and run "ps -eo cmd | grep AddOnProductInstaller | head -n 1"
- You should see AddOnProductInstaller from your installation dir with (very) long cmd line arguments.
- Run this as sudo

I have the same problem with Ubuntu 19.04 and matlab R2019b, for the installation I succed using sudo ./install instead of only ./install. But becasue the add-ones are installed trough matlab and not terminal I'm not able to use the sudo command. I tried all the solution proposed in this page but they weren't useful for me.
What should I do?

If you are running the Matlab in container and if this issue is persistent then this is how I solved the problem.
sudo chmod -R o+rw /opt/matlab/R2022b
sudo chown -R matlab:matlab /opt/matlab/R2022b
Then restart the Matlab and hope the problem is solved.

If I understand your problem, it doesn't seem to be related to installing toolboxes. You just want to start MATLAB by running it from the terminal?
When you type a command into the terminal, it looks for a program in one of the folders in your PATH environment variable. If you want to run MATLAB from the terminal, you will have to add a symbolic link to one of these folders if the installer did not. For example, if MATLAB installed in ~/.local/
ln -s ~/.local/MATLAB/R2021b/bin/matlab ~/.local/bin/matlab
would hopefully get you what you want.
Hasan
2022-12-10
I recommend that you try installing toolboxes with administrative privileges. For instance:
sudo /usr/local/matlab/R2020a/bin/matlab
