![]() MATLAB R2013a does not support 10.6.8.Īt the moment, here are the options that appear to be available:įor 10.6.x: MATLAB users should install and use MATLAB R2011aįor 10.7.x – 10.8.x: MATLAB users should upgrade to MATLAB R2013a if possible. MATLAB R2013a runs in Mac OS X 10.7.5 and 10.8.4 with the latest Apple Java updates installed. MATLAB R2011a runs in Mac OS X 10.6.8, 10.7.5 and 10.8.4 with the latest Apple Java updates installed. You can open the program but it does not register any mouse or keyboard interaction until the window is resized.Īfter speaking with Mathworks support, I tested and verified the following: Update 16 to a 10.6.x Mac, or Java for OS X 2013-004 to a 10.7.x – 10.8.x Mac, MATLAB 2012b and below stops functioning correctly. The root cause was discussed and identified in this StackOverflow thread and appears to affect Swing applications, including MATLAB.Īfter applying Apple’s Java For Mac OSX 10.6. At my shop, MATLAB was one of the applications that was affected by this. If you did it right, you should end up with MatLab installed in the “/Applications” folder.After the latest round of Apple’s Java updates, some Java-based applications began exhibiting problems. Test the install package, for me that means adding it to a DeployStudio workflow. ![]() path_to_munkipkg /path_to_project_folder Run the command below to have munkipkg create a pkg file in the “build” folder. Once you have all the pieces in place, you’re ready to make a package. Sudo /private/tmp/R2017a/install -inputFile /private/tmp/R2017a/installer_input.txt #run the MatLab installer and specficy an installer file for options Sudo mv /private/tmp/MatLab_2017a_License /Users/Shared make sure you put the script in the “scripts” folder, named “postinstall” and make it executable. Then I’ll create a postinstall script to copy the license folder to “/Users/Shared” and run the install. Edit the “ist” file to change the install location to “/tmp”. I created the “MatLab_2017a_License” folder, for the network license. Inside the payload folder, I put the R2017a folder with all the files downloaded from the installer. Munkipkg will create the folder structure. path_to_munkipkg -create /path_to_project_folder If you’ve never used it, check out the site for examples and usage, it’s very simple and predictable. You can use a management tool, or Apple Remote Desktop, or Whitebox – Packages to make a pkg, but I’m going to use munkipkg. You need to decide on how you’ll repackage and deploy them. Once all the files are download, a little over 4 GB’s. # CHOOSE TO INSTALL LICENSE MANAGER (For network license types only, on select true for the license server) LicensePath=/Users/Shared/MatLab_2017a_License/license.dat # SPECIFY PATH TO LICENSE FILE (Required for network license types only) OutputFile=/Library/Logs/matlab_r2017a.log You can also check out Graham Pugh’s file.įileInstallationKey=xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx For a basic install of a network licensed client, here’s what you want to un-comment and edit in the file. This contains the options for how the installer installs MatLab. Inside the folder MatLab downloaded is the “installer_input.txt” file. Select what products you want to download, click “Next”. Unless you have a reason to change it, the defaults work fine. By default it will create “~/Downloads/MathWorks/R2017a”. Click on “Next”.īrowse to where you want to download the files. Select “Log in to your MathWorks Account”, and enter your email and password. When the installer opens, select “Log in with a MathWorks Account”, click on “Next” Basically here’s the options you want for a network install. You want to uncomment any options you want the installer to run. Use this file to edit the options on how to install Matlab. Inside the folder downloaded by Matlab is a file named, “installer_input.txt”. Inside is “InstallForMacOSX.app”, double click to launch the installer. Un-zip and then double click on the “matlab_R2017a_maci64.dmg”. That downloads the file, “matlab_R2017a_”. The click the download for the Mac OS X installer The first step is to log into your MatLab account and download the latest version. Login to your MatLab account and download the latest installer This year I have even more MatLab installs and realized it was time to do it right. ![]() Last year I didn’t have time and ended up manually installing on each machine in a lab. For any MacAdmins in higher Ed, this is how I’m packaging and deploying MatLab.
