Re: [Condor-users] Matlab under Condor - wierd runtime error

["Schairer, Wolfgang (NSN - DE/Munich)" <wolfgang.schairer@xxxxxxx>]

I am also using complied matlab code together with condor. The MCR  is installed on every conputer in the cluster. When I have USE_VISIBLE_DESKTOP = TRUE I see a similar error message (Could not create....), but the programs still run fine. So I don't think this is the reason for your problem.

Cheers

Wolfgang

It's Matlab v. 7.4 (R2007a) and I'm using the mcc compiler. The 
MCR is on a Novell file server and accessed using a mapped  
network drive.
