Thread Subject: 2009a & Snow Leopard

I just clean installed Snow Leopard and was reinstalling matlab 2009a. When i go to active i get some strange error message and then nothing. It said to check the log file so i did and here are the contents. Any help would be super!

Same thing here, Snow Leopard... Hopefully a resolution comes soon.

best, arun.

I got the same problem. Try manual activation via download of your license file - this should work.

Cheers, Martin

here is the solution that finally worked out for me ...

Hey, I think I'm having the same problem. Has anybody figured the problem out? Any info would be awesome. Thanks

Hi, folks. It turns out to be simply the Java problem.
Just set 32-bit as the Java Application first priority at the Utilities -> Java Preferences.
See my blog post for detail:
