Installation failed because of missing C compiler

Hi guys,

I just installed ubuntu 20.04 and I'm having troubles installing the newest MATLAB version. After the whole installation-process has loaded, this message was shown. I thought that it will only affect this "simulaton acceleration" feature, but after I closed the warning I had to realise, that MATLAB hasn't been installed at all. Before the second try I installed gcc, which is listed as a supported C compiler, but after installing again, I got the same resulte. Is somebody facing the same problems? Is there a solution for this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

From My understanding you are trying to install to R2020a version which doesn't support UBUNTU 20.04.

See this document https://www.mathworks.com/content/dam/mathworks/mathworks-dot-com/support/sysreq/files/system-requirements-release-2020a-linux.pdf

MATLAB R2020b does support ubuntu 20.04
