One user (of many) is having trouble with a distributed executable. He is getting the message that he can't find version 8.4 of the MCR but he has verified that it is installed. See screen shots below.

Is it possible that they are using a 32 bit operating system?

[Scott Copeland]

The have a 64-bit OS. Good question though.

There is a bug in MATLAB Compiler R2014a in the way the MCR entry in the PATH is handled. R2014a cannot handle a trailing backslash. Verify that your MCR entry looks similar to

C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime\v83\runtime\win64

and not like this (note the \ at the end)

C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime\v83\runtime\win64\

This affects 32bit and 64bit MATLAB/MCR.

Hi Varun, Thanks for responding. I'm still waiting to here from the user. Best, Scott

[Scott Copeland]

Hi Varun, I'm not clear what you mean by "MCR entry". Is this a setting during compilation, or part of the path, or an environment variable? How do I check? Thanks, Scott

[Varun Gunda]

Check in the System path. If it is not present, add it.
