I am trying to install Matlab on Ubuntu 12.04, I have a 32bits machine. I downloaded the files and set the file install to exectable, then run :
$ ./install -v
but then I got the error :
Error : Cannot locate Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
The directory /Unix_MAC/sys/java/jre/glnx86/jre does not exist.
So I decided to add the path of matlab's jre to the command ( But before I went to sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/glnxa64 and changed the file java to executable), then tried :
$ ./install -v -javadir /home/mbenseddik/Unix_MAC/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/
But then I got the following error :

It seems like it is looking for glnx86 whereas the only directory inside the sys/java/jre directory is glnx64...
Any idea on the matter ?
./install -v -javadir <location of jre in your machine>
, so you'd try./install -v -javadir /home/mbenseddik/Unix_MAC/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/
../install -v -javadir /home/mbenseddik/Unix_MAC/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/
, isn't that the directory where you foundglnx64
? I'm just saying you can try the same command you tried in your question, but add the-javadir
option.
