matlab: Command not found. Can't start MATLAB engine

I trying to compile the a engdemo.cpp from g++ on Ubuntu 14.04: I installed cshell in /bin/csh and did set the

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<matlabroot>/bin/glnxa64:<matlabroot>/sys/os/glnxa64.
<matlabroot> is the right folder /usr/local/MATLAB...

I used following instruction to compile the engdemo.cpp:

g++ -I<matlabroot>/extern/include engdemo.cpp -lmx -leng -L<matlabroot>/bin/glnxa64  -o engdemo

It compiles correctly. But I am unable to run the code. On running, I get the error:

matlab: Command not found.

Can't start MATLAB engine

What could be reason? I checked many forums and matlab community and whatever solution mentioned in them are satisfied in my case. Could somebody please tell what went wrong?

I solved the issue. It was an internal fault within Ubuntu. These steps are sufficient to start the matlab engine if your Ubuntu is well and good.

Hi Michael,

What did you actually need to do to solve this issue in the end? What exactly do you mean that it was in internal fault within Ubuntu. I am having a similar issue on Ubuntu even though my paths seem to be set properly as well. Please advise.
