Not able to open px4 examples in matlab 2024b.

Hello,

I recently installed the new matlab version that is 2024b, but in this new version i am unable to open any of the px4 examples. Is there any solution for this?

There error that pops up is:

>> openExample('px4/GettingStartedWithUORBBlocksPX4SPKGExample')

Error using websave (line 107)

The server returned the status 404 with message "Not Found" in response to the request to URL

https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2024b/exampledata/px4/examples.xml.

Error in matlab.internal.examples.copyFromWeb (line 28)

result = websave(target, url, options);

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Error in matlab.internal.examples.findExamplesXml (line 32)

found = matlab.internal.examples.copyFromWeb(component, '', 'examples.xml', examplesXml, false);

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Error in findExample (line 14)

examplesXml = matlab.internal.examples.findExamplesXml(component,arg);

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Error in openExample (line 32)

metadata = findExample(exampleId);

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Best,

The R2024a version of the file exists, so as a work-around you can run the example in R2024a.

This is a known bug and the development team works on a fix. Maybe check again on Wednesday or Thursday.

Otherwise install the offline documentation in the meantime:
