Dear Experts,

I have been running Mac OSX 10.11.6 (El Capitan) for quite some years, and using legacy MATLAB 2009b and 2015b without any problem.

After the update to OSX 10.13.6 (High Sierra), both versions stopped working and complain about missing JAVA environement.

matlab 2009b produces this error.

my Java say this:

java -version

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 13.0.2+8)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 13.0.2+8, mixed mode, sharing)

Can anyone help me? I am lost!!

Thanks, Markus

You need to install the Java 6 Legacy Runtime; https://appuals.com/how-to-install-legacy-java-se-6-runtime-on-macos/

Caution: MATLAB R2009b is not expected to work on High Sierra if your region environment is not set up as English USA, except for a small number of other (mostly English) combinations that are expected to work. Apple changed the way that region information is to be fetched. I think it was fixed by R2015b but not R2015a.

R2009b is not supported in High Sierra.

I just tried installing R2009bSP1 on High Sierra, but I got a "critical error" about a missing .enc file.

I was able to get the R2008b installer to run on High Sierra. It bombed out in the activation phase at the end due to not being able to find Java. So I set JAVA_HOME to point to jdk 1.6.0 and tried launching MATLAB 7.6 . It said it needed X11. So I installed XQuartz and tried launching MATLAB 7.6 again. It told me it couldn't find /bin/maci/setsid . So I tracked down a linux-tools package that could be installed with brew. Turns out I needed to install brew first... That done, MATLAB 7.6 complained in sequence about some missing executables, that turned out to be one level down in /Applications -- like /Applications/bin/matlab when it was looking for /bin/matlab . Looks like it was missing an environment variable telling it which basic installation directory to use. Turns out I didn't need to brew install, I just needed to link /bin/maci to point to /Applications/bin/maci .

But after that it turns out to complain about missing .dylib files, and I'm going to give up there.

I do not remember enough at the moment about the R2009a installer for Mac to know if it used the MATLAB<space>NUMBER structure or the MATLAB_R2009a.app structure -- the ones with the spaces were always a pain to deal with on later versions of Mac.

Dear Walter!

Thanks for your exceptional effort!

OK, I understand, I am OK to drop Matlab 2009, I understand that the time distance of 8 years is quite huge.

However, above I was also trying to bring R2015b back to work. It is not a new install, it was working perfectly on the same machine under macOS 10.11.6 befor the OS update.

While macOS 10.13 came in 2017, MATLAB 2015 came in 2015, so only 2 years earlier. So in my understanding it would be very astonishing, if it was impossible to make it work again!

The above reported error messages were created when I was trying to start MATALB R2015b from the terminal.

I am not sure if I need to point MATLAB_JAVA to the system installation of JAVA (1.6.0, or 1.8.0?) or rather the MATLAB own java installation where R2015b was searching at the beginning and could'nt find an unambigous path.

markus$ objc[9554]: Class JavaLaunchHelper is implemented in both /Applications/MATLAB_R2015b.app/sys/java/jre/maci64/jre/bin/java (0x1012054c0) and /Applications/MATLAB_R2015b.app/sys/java/jre/maci64/jre/lib/jli/libjli.dylib (0x11b4d1480). One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.

Thanks for help!

Markus

What I did now:

I referenced MATALB_JAVA to where it was looking for it initially

export MATLAB_JAVA="/Applications/MATLAB_R2015b.app/sys/java/jre/maci64/jre/"

and it seems to WORK!!

Thank you for all the help!

Sounds good!

Those 10+ year old versions are difficult to work with these days. MATLAB's packaging improved a lot when they went for the MATLAB_R20xx.app directory structure.
