Unexpected error referring pi_gene_mci_glnxa64

Receiving such error messages when starting a batch job on R2025a. However the job starts after about a minute.We don't see such errors in older versions. Are there any major changes in R2025a that are causing these. How to remove/disable them

@Sai, the error pi_gene_mci indicates that a background interface component is failing to initialize in your batch environment. Ensure you are starting your job with matlab -batch "script" rather than matlab -nodesktop -r "script". The -batch mode is optimized to skip certain UI-related background services.
