Hello all,
I have a question very similar to this one, regarding executing bash commands from the matlab command-line. For context, I'm using MATLAB R2019a (9.6.0.1150989 Update 4) on Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.19041 Build 19041
The command I'm trying to execute is
! bash -c c:/nrn/bin/mknrndll
This gives me the output
0 [main] sh 20084 sync_with_child: child 20888(0x244) died before initialization with status code 0xC0000142
848356 [main] sh 20084 sync_with_child: *** child state waiting for longjmp
c:/nrn/bin/mknrndll: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
When I start bash from the windows start menu (by typing in bash and pressing enter), I can cd to the folder in question and execute
bash-4.4$ c:/nrn/bin/mknrndll
which produces the expected output (a compiled .dll file from a bunch of .mod files, and some other extrania).
I can execute
from inside MATLAB without problems and recieve the expected output.
On closer inspection, this probably isn't strictly speaking a MATLAB issue because I get the same error if I first open cmd.exe, then start bash, then cd, then try mknrndll I get the same error from as within Matlab. Nevertheless, does anyone have any ideas what's going on here (and are there any other ways of executing a sh script on windows via Matlab?)
