Not able to install the 4.0.beta5 version

[Nicolás Bayona]

Hello,

I'm not able to install MTEX  4.0.beta5 version. I find the following error:

>> startup_mtex
initialize MTEX 4.0.beta5  ..Undefined function 'setMTEXpref' for input arguments of type 'char'.

Error in startup_mtex (line 55)
setMTEXpref('mtexPath',local_path);

And I can't find the 'setMTEXpref' function on the zip file. I'm running MATLAB R2014a on windows 7 enterprise.

Thanks

Nicolas Bayona

Hi Nicolás Bayona,

thank you very much for reporting this bug. This is a very frequently occurring issue. However, I was never able to reproduce it. Therefore, I would be happy for some help from your side.

Could you please post the the output of the command

path

after you got the error message?

Ralf.

PS: A workaround for this bug is to add the mtex folder with subfolders to the Matlab search path under [Home -> Set Path] in the Matlab menu bar, but I really would like to figure out why this bug occurs.

I'm still interested in the answer to my previous question, but I also uploaded a corrected version MTEX 4.0.1 to our new homepage

http://mtex-toolbox.github.io/

Hope this works now,

Ralf.

Hi Ralf,
Sorry for the late answer. I wasn't gettting the notifications on my email.
You'll find attached the output of the command "path" after the error message when trying to install the version MTEX  4.0.beta5.

Hi again Ralf,
I installed the version 4.0.2 using the workaround you described above. It didn't work from the first time using the "startup_mtex" command.

Thanks,
Nicolas
