Install R2022a on RHEL8 via .iso file. Getting a "libmwcomm​onproducti​nstalldriv​er.so" error.

Need help install MATLB on RHEL8. I am getting a "libmwcommonproductinstalldriver.so" error. The .iso works fine with RHEL7_9.

Did you ever find a resolution for this?

I'm also interested in a resolution. Trying to install parallel server and getting the same with installation media provided by the vendor.

Edit: These instructions from the vendor worked for me. I think the media I'd recieved was already unziped in Windows. Unzipping it in linux with those arguments did the trick.

Thank you for contacting MathWorks Support. I created a new case from the one you referenced because it seems like you are encountering a different issue than the previous case. Here is the information I found about the error you are getting when running "./install":

This error is typically caused by broken symbolic links within the installer as a result of downloading and zipping the Download Only contents on a Windows machine before moving them over to the Linux machine.

To resolve this error, you may redownload the Download Only installation package on a Linux machine, or you may perform the following solutions:

A) Unzip the Download Only installation files with -X -K flags. For example:

unzip -X -K matlab_R2020b_glnxa64.zip

B) Perform the following workaround:

1. Locate and extract the matlab_R2020b_glnxa64 file located in the installation package.
2. In the extracted matlab_R2020b_glnxa64 folder, verify that the install script can now launch the MathWorks Installer, then close the Installer before continuing. (If it can not, you may need to redownload the installation files on a Linux machine.)
3. Rename the archives folder in the extracted matlab_R2020b_glnxa64 folder to archives_old.
4. Copy and paste the archives folder from the original download only files into the new extracted folder.
5. Proceed with the installation

You mentioned getting the installation files from someone else, do you know exactly where that person obtained the installation files from?

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to email me back.

Try installing lsb-core on your system or lowering your security settings. Which release of MATLAB are you trying to install?
