Can someone help me?
I am installing an update (R2017b, update 4) but it also pops up this fetal error.
My OS is Linux, I am not sure if I launch the update by a correct command. I cannot launch it by entering the command suggested by MATLAB, but replace ./ with "sudo sh". https://www.mathworks.com/content/dam/mathworks/mathworks-dot-com/support/updates/r2017b/r2017b-updates-install-instructions.pdf
It then asks me the directory Please specify MATLAB installation directory [/usr/local/MATLAB/R2017b]
However, my MATLAB is not installed in usr but another file. Even I place the install file (R2017b_Update_4_glnxa64.sh) in the same file with R2017b, and simply press enter for the directory, the fetal error comes out.
(I am not asked for any installation key or activation key. I am not sure if this should be asked when installing an update)
