Hi Ali,
Simscape Multibody Link gives rise to errors in the installation is generally indicative of an issue with the unzip process or the installation script such as Error using unzip Line 84 and Error in install_addon Line 52.
Potential Causes and Resolutions:
  • Corrupt Download- Re-download the Simscape Multibody Link package from the official MathWorks website, ensuring the file is not corrupted.
  • Lack of Permissions- Check that you have the required permission(s). If on Windows, run MATLAB as administrator; if on macOS/Linux, run MATLAB with elevated privileges.
  • Problem with the File Path- Make sure the installation folder is not containing special characters or spaces. Also, ensure the path for installation is not too long.
  • Disk Space- Make sure there are enough disk space on the drive where MATLAB is installed.
  • MATLAB Version Compatibility- Check for compatibility with MATLAB by verifying version compatibility information from MathWorks for the Simscape Multibody Link installed.
  • Possible Antivirus/Firewall Conflicts- Temporarily disable antivirus or firewall settings and try the installation again.
Steps for Troubleshooting
  • Re-download and Reinstall- Delete previously installed files and re-download the package. Follow official installation instructions from MathWorks.
  • Check Installation Log- Check for the installation log for more cues related to the error.
  • Manual Installation- Unzip the package manually in case the automatic installation fails, following the manual installation steps in the documentation.
  • Contact MathWorks- If all these approaches do not solve the issue, contact MathWorks support and ask for a detailed check.
