Same old, same old, missing shared object files in Linux
Show older comments
I installed matlab on ubuntu 24.04 seemingly without errors...
but running it returns.
/data/MATLAB/R2026a/bin/glnxa64/path_per_install: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto-mw.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
/data/MATLAB/R2026a/bin/glnxa64/MATLAB: error while loading shared libraries: libssl-mw.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This I have tried many times before, so have others but no one seems to be able to fix it.
I have followed recipes herein for installing dependecies etc but nothing helps. I fear once I get those two missing files, it will need some more?
Anyone who was able to fix it?

Hi Mads,
It is my understanding that you are encountering errors while launching MATLAB on Ubuntu 24.04 related to missing shared libraries (libcrypto-mw.so.3, libssl-mw.so.3) despite a seemingly successful installation.
Given that this involves system-level library dependencies and runtime configuration, which can vary across Linux distributions and setups, I recommend reaching out to MathWorks Support for detailed assistance. They can help investigate your specific installation environment and provide targeted guidance.
