system command error within a parfor
Show older comments
Hi all,
I'm getting this error when runnning the code below. I isolated the issue to the use of the system command within the parfor loop. Note however that the same exact code runs fine on another -windows- PC.
Error Identifier: MATLAB:parallel:future:FetchNextFutureErrored
Error Message: The function evaluation completed with an error.
parfor ......
.....
command = ...;
system(command);
end

Does that other Windows PC also have the parallel computing toolbox? Because without that toolbox, parfor loops are treated as normal for loops, which avoids a lot of issues.
