Hi,
I recently pull matlab images from docker Hub in my VM. I can access it on my browser and everything seems to work good. But, I don't have simulink installed so I can't open my microgrid structure. How can I install simulink ? I don't have access to add on on my page. So I would like to download the add on file of simulink but I don't manage to find it. !
Thanks !

Another question, now I have simulink inside my matlab container but when I tried to import or create a project nothing happened... Do you have an idea of what is the problem ? Thanks a lot
Edit : okay seems like a licence issue :
Diagnostic Information:
Feature: MATLAB
License path:
Licensing error: 4402,0.
I use a trial version.. It is permitted ? I can't connect to the matlab interface anymore.

To install Simulink into the mathworks/matlab Docker images using mpm, the following Dockerfile can be utilized. This Dockerfile was created based on available documentation while retaining the original base image:
ARG MATLAB_RELEASE="R2024b"
FROM mathworks/matlab:${MATLAB_RELEASE}
ARG MATLAB_RELEASE
ARG MATLAB_PRODUCT_LIST="MATLAB Simulink"
ARG MATLAB_INSTALL_LOCATION="/opt/matlab/${MATLAB_RELEASE}"
USER root
RUN export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive \
&& apt update \
&& apt-get install --no-install-recommends --yes \
wget \
ca-certificates \
&& apt-get clean \
&& apt-get autoremove \
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
USER matlab
WORKDIR /home/matlab
RUN wget -q https://www.mathworks.com/mpm/glnxa64/mpm \
&& chmod +x mpm \
&& sudo HOME=${HOME} ./mpm install \
--release=${MATLAB_RELEASE} \
--destination=${MATLAB_INSTALL_LOCATION} \
--products ${MATLAB_PRODUCT_LIST} \
|| (echo "MPM Installation Failure. See below for more information:" && cat /tmp/mathworks_root.log && false) \
&& sudo rm -rf mpm /tmp/mathworks_root.log \
&& sudo ln -s ${MATLAB_INSTALL_LOCATION}/bin/matlab /usr/bin/matlab
To customize the installation, adjust the MATLAB_PRODUCT_LIST to include the desired products. Build the Docker image and run it in browser mode using the following commands:
$ docker build -t matlab . # Execute in the same directory as Dockerfile
$ docker run -it --rm -p 8888:8888 --shm-size=512M matlab -browser
Upon navigating to localhost:8888, Simulink will appear in the toolstrip as depicted in the accompanying image:
Hope this helps.
