What were you trying to do?
I just installed RedHat 6.2/Athena 8.4 on my Dell Optiplex GX300.
Everything seemed to install correctly. I attached the matlab locker
and ran matlab. It seemed to work just fine until I tried to run a
mex file. There are sample mex files in the directory
/afs/athena.mit.edu/software/matlab_v5.3.1/distrib/extern/examples/mex
I copied yprime.c to my home directory and ran the following command
in matlab:
mex yprime.c
This produced a file yprime.mexlx. According
to the matlab Application Program Interface Guide (page 2-5) I should
run the command yprime(1,1:4)
What's wrong:
When I ran the above command I got the following error:
>> yprime(1,1:4)
Segmentation violation occurred within signal handler.
Unable to complete stack trace (stack was probably corrupted)
