I am having difficulty to install matlab R2012b on Ubuntu 12.10 machine. I have chmod +x both the install and java files and now when I run "sudo ./install" I recieve the following error:
Preparing installation files ... Installing ... Exception in thread "main" com.google.inject.ProvisionException: Guice provision errors:
1) Error in custom provider, java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException at com.mathworks.wizard.WizardModule.provideDisplayProperties(WizardModule.java:60) while locating com.mathworks.instutil.DisplayProperties at com.mathworks.wizard.ui.components.ComponentsModule.provid
and so on...
any thoughts?

I had the same problem on Kubuntu 12.04. I could solve based on the following forum, entry #7: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1762405
The problem is that in the [matlab/install/dir]/bin/glnxa64/ a symbolic link is converted into a text file and doesn't behave as a link anymore. It must be replaced by a new one.
cd bin/glnxa64
rm libstdc++.so.6
ln -s libstdc++.so.6.0.13 libstdc++.so.6

Try installing from a directory without spaces -- it looks like your installation media is in "/tmp/Mathlab R2012b Linux"
If that doesn't work, I suggest contacting installation support.

Towards the end there's this:
"libstdc++.so.6: file too short"
It looks like something may be corrupted in your installation files.
