Problem with Mastan2 installation 1

[Italo01]

Hello, i'd like to know if someone here that tried to install MASTAN2 received this same message: "Error finding installer class. An exception occurred while looking for class". And how did you solve it?

Thank you.

There are two types of MASTAN installs, I believe. O

One requires you to have Matlab installed already. I suspect this is the one that you're installing. If so, I suspect it means that there is an issue with your Matlab installation. Or, that the installation program is having trouble validating that MatLab is properly installed.

The other one (which I have installed a few times) does NOT require MatLab. I have not gotten any error messages with this installation.

I should point out that the reason why I think it may be a MatLab related issue is because when I did a search on the message, it pointed me to some MatLab sites.

I saw that Mastan has tow versions, one that requires Matlab and other that do not, but i downloaded the version 2 that does not require Matlab. Anyway, thanks for the help.

That version (which is the version that I've installed before) probably installs some MatLab components or libraries or such that it uses. That's just a guess on my part. And, it's not something I thought of initially.

The MatLab responses to this sort of issue include the following:

[ul]
[li]Non-ASCII characters (e.g. !@#$&^?) are present in the path to the MATLAB installation folder, or the name of the folder itself[/li]
[li]Non-ASCII characters are present in the path to the Windows TEMP folder, the name of the TEMP folder itself, or the values of the TEMP and/or TMP environment variables[/li]
[li]Non-ASCII characters are present in the path to the folder containing the MATLAB installer, or the name of the folder itself[/li]
[li]There is a problem with the installation files (damaged DVD, corrupt or incomplete downloads)[/li]
[li]MATLAB is already installed and you are running the setup.exe from the installation folder/directory[/li]
[/ul]
