Problem with register MATLAB as Automation Server

I am doing a project in AWR design environment and I need to implement MATLAB block in my project. Before using this block, the MATLAB application must have been registered as a COM Automation Server. When I tried to apply this, I get " Unable to set Registry value for CLSID\{D620C860-925B-40A5-B82A-7AE2B9423D11}. You may not have sufficient priviliges. Re-run matlab as a user with administration access." error. What should I do?

As the error message says your Windows user account must have administator privilege to install automation servers (matlab or otherwise). Note that it is a windows restriction, not matlab.

Thank you so much,

Hi Guillaume, I had the same problem, I have to call a matlab function from C # visual studio, when I use the command:

! Matlab -regserver

also as administrator, nothing happens, do you know what it could be?

thanks

If you don't have enough privileges you should see a popup telling you as much.

Possibly, nothing (in terms of display) is meant to happen if it succeed. I haven't tried recently.

Note that with a standard installation matlab should already be registered as an automation server, so normally you don't need to do anything.

You can easily check if matlab is registered by issuing;

matlab = actxserver('matlab.application');

You should get a matlab command window popping up if it's properly registered. An error otherwise.
