Hello Jong Woo.

Are you sure you have set MATLABDIR in your RELEASE file correctly?

I notice that besides the compiler not finding 'mex.h' the following

error is printed:

make[2]: /usr/local/MATLAB/2020b//bin/mexext: Command not found

Here at PSI I define

MATLABDIR = /afs/psi.ch/sys/psi.x86_64_el7/Programming/matlab/2020b/

and experience no errors.

Also:

ls /afs/psi.ch/sys/psi.x86_64_el7/Programming/matlab/2020b/bin/mexext

/afs/psi.ch/sys/psi.x86_64_el7/Programming/matlab/2020b/bin/mexext

and

ls

/afs/psi.ch/sys/psi.x86_64_el7/Programming/matlab/2020b/extern/include/mex.h

/afs/psi.ch/sys/psi.x86_64_el7/Programming/matlab/2020b/extern/include/mex.h

you seem to have a problem either with your MATLABDIR definition or your

matlab installation (which includes the possibility that you lack

permission to read these files).

Hello,

When I built labCA, I encountered an error as below.

version
labca: 3.7.2
matlab: 2020b

I found that mex.h file is in <matlab-top>/extern/include/

Do you have any idea why it says 'No such a file or directory'?
