mcc problem on linux (2015b)

Searching in Matlab docs and forum did not help. I'm getting the following error, trying to compile a simple .m script function on a ubuntu linux 15.04 running MatLab 2015b:

>> mcc -m getpower.m
Error using matlab.depfun.internal.database.SqlDbConnector/doSql

        s = matlab.depfun.internal.SearchPath(target,
        varargin{2:end});

Error using mcc
Unexpected error while determining required deployable files.
Compilation terminated.

The .m function actually simple return a constant, but seems that Matlab can't find the file path. Hoping this is only a common newbie questin, any suggestion?

Thanks, gioboske

What is the full path of the directory from where you are running this mcc command?

[gioboske]

I run the mcc command from the same path of the m script (in the example: /home/gioboske/Documents). I also tried the "-a" option on the MatLab path, but I get the same error. By the way, I've checked and the file "/home/gioboske/opt/MATLAB/R2015b/toolbox/matlab/depfun/+matlab/+depfun/+internal/requirements_glnxa64_dfdb" exists.

Anyone find an answer to this? Getting something similar with R2016a on a debian box.

I just installed a trial of the product and am seeing the same problem. I can't compile the simplest example in the documentation on linux. I'm on Ubuntu -- anyone seen a fix?

[Ruben Verhack]

I have exactly the same problem under Ubuntu 16.04 and Matlab R2015b. Any fixes? Or should I temporarily downgrade to R2015a?

Hi Guys, I tried this and it worked.

1. Close ur MATLAB session if already open
2. Set this env variable : setenv('MCC_USE_DEPFUN','1'). Note that this command may vary depending on the shell you are running from.
3. Invoke MATLAB and MCC build works!

As bad as it gets. Same problem in R2017a on Ubuntu 16.04. Reverting to an older method of searching for dependencies instead of fixing the known problem on Linux.
