I had to reinstall C5 64-bit out-of-box on two machines.  Before the
reinstall, Matlab 2007a 64-bit worked fine.  Now, I get "failed to start
the desktop; failure loading desktop class".  matlab -nojvm works fine.

The reinstall was not an upgrade.

I tested on two identical systems - one before I installed the NVIDIA
drivers, and one after.  No difference.

I installed jre and jdk 1_5.0.11 on one system, and redirected
/usr/bin/java to the newer one.  No luck.

I tried installing Matlab as root and sudo, running it as root and plain
user.   No difference.

Web sites aren't helping me much.

I performed a complete install (selecting ALL items from EVERY catagory of
the C5 64-bit DVD).

The machines are not on any network and never will be (both isolated
systems)

Anyone else with ideas?

Thanks.

Have you checked this page?

http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/data/1-183DH.html?solution=1-183DH

Would matlab start with -nodesktop option at all ?

I found the problem was /lib64/xawt itself was missing, and matlab was looking for /lib64/xawt/libmawt.so

Not sure if that is a function of CentOS or Matlab for the missing directory.

I first ran locate libmawt.so, found the one in the Matlab path I wanted, and created an xawt directory under /lib64, then created a symlink from the path of Matlab's to /lib64/xawt/libmawt.so and both machines I had problems with worked.

Thanks.

Scott
