Running MATLAB using York's VPN service to access EECS license server
1. Verify MATLAB license file
- Navigate to where you installed MATLAB and verify the contents of the license.dat or network.lic file
For example on Windows:
- Open an elevated command prompt
- Click the Start Menu and start to type cmd
- You should see “Command Prompt” Right-click it and choose Run as administrator
- Choose Yes on any User Account Control messages that might appear.
- In the command prompt type the following: (using notepad to edit the network.lic file)
cd C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2019a\licenses notepad network.lic
- Verify that the file contains the following and if it doesn't, update the file and save it.
SERVER licenseserv.eecs.yorku.ca 000102030405 1726 USE_SERVER
2. Connect to York's VPN service
