在 MATLAB Online 中打开

This error indicates that a link to X11(or XQuartz) is broken. For those running 10.7 or higher, the recommended solution is to simply reinstall XQuartz from http://xquartz.macosforge.org/.

For users running 10.6 and below you may either reinstall X11 from your OS install DVD or run the following command in Terminal to link your X11 installation to the necessary location:

sudo ln -s /opt/X11 /usr/X11

(You will be required to enter an administrator password to run this command.)

If you are having issues installing or launching MATLAB versions R2011a-R2013a on Yosemite, please see the following article:
