[kepler-users] Kepler help

[Matt Jones]

Hi Michael,

The MatlabExpression actor calls the local shared library for Matlab,
which it needs to be able to find.  If you read the actor
documentation in the Actor Reference Manual (or from the Help menu in
Kepler), it describes how to set the appropriate environment variables
before running Kepler.
https://code.kepler-project.org/code/kepler-docs/trunk/outreach/documentation/shipping/ActorReference.pdf

Check if you can run the demo Matlab workflow (in
demos/Matlab/MatlabExpression.xml) which is working for me.  Its
important that the environment variable be set when you launch Kepler,
which it may not be if you use the .exe or .app launcher.  Instead,
set the appropriate environment variables and then launch from the
command line as explained in the demo workflow.

Its hard to help with your specific problem without knowing which
operating system you are using and which version of Kepler you have.
If you provide more info, Daniel Crawl from SDSC might be able to help
more.  In general, if you want to reach the developers with support
questions, use the 'kepler-users at kepler-project.org' mailing list.
See the web site for details on subscribing to that list.

Regards,
Matt
