install addons for all users (or group of Users) : Linux, R2017b

Hello,

Is there a solution to install "Addons" for all users ? (Neural Network Import for Caffe ... Berkeley)

I tried (as root) to:

• create a $matlabroot/toolbox/local/addons (not sure if it's a good path??)
• launch matlab GUI as root ( ... which is unusual...)
• change addonspath in menu "preferences" to $matlabroot/toolbox/local/addons + "apply"
• quit matlab
• execute: ./install_supportsoftware.sh -matlabroot $mymatlabroot

Installation is OK but only for the user root, because:

1. the installation is in /root/Documents/MATLAB : addonspath (in GUI) seems to be unread
2. the installation asked for mathworks account id/passwd (even if I already filled in login/passwd for downloading the addons)

So the solution would be:

• each user install the products on his account,
• each user needs our campus mathworks id/passwd,
• each user needs to open a GUI session on the front-end of our cluster.

All 3 points are inappropriate

Please help,

thanks in advance,

Phil.
