Can't install matlab R2019b no gui linux

4 views (last 30 days)
I am trying to install the last version of Matlab(R2019b) on a server which has ubuntu on it. Of course the server has no gui. So I can just install with command line.
On the license manager I already activate the computer, giving its host id and its name. So I got the license file and the file installation key.
I downloaded the installer via my pc and transfered it to the server.
So I ran the following command: "sudo ./install -mode silent -agreeToLicense yes -fileInstallationKey xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxx(long list...) -licensePath=/u/home/feroce/matlab_R2019b_glnxa64/license.lic"
But I get the following output+error:
Preparing installation files ...

Using a File Installation Key requires you run the installer from a MATLAB DVD or from a directory which contains files previously downloaded via the installer.

How can I get the required installation files in order to complete the installation? Is there anything I was doing wrong or that I am supposed to do now?
