Hi All,
I am using student version of Matlab on Mac OS
I am trying to execute a batch file (modflow.bat) in matlab
------------------------
cat basic.bas > picto12_15.bas
tail -13098 picto09_12.fhd >> picto12_15.bas
~/modflow/src/mf2005 picto12_15.nam > chick
cat basic.bas > picto15_18.bas
tail -13098 picto12_15.fhd >> picto15_18.bas
~/modflow/src/mf2005 picto15_18.nam > chick
cat basic.bas > picto18_21.bas
tail -13098 picto15_18.fhd >> picto18_21.bas
~/modflow/src/mf2005 picto18_21.nam > chick
cat basic.bas > picto21_24.bas
tail -13098 picto18_21.fhd >> picto21_24.bas
~/modflow/src/mf2005 picto21_24.nam > chick
------------------------
this batch file runs fine on the command line of mac. but when I did
!sh modflow.bat
it gives the error

Can anyone tell me where is the problem
Thanking You and Regards

Perhaps MATLAB is running in an environment different from the system shell. It looks like your LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting in MATLAB may be different from that in the shell. Try running MATLAB from the system shell and see if it gets the right setting.

I don't know if this info about DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH will help, but it might:

It turns out that R experts do not approve of this solution. Here is an official approach that involves setting a symbolic link from /usr/local/bin to the R library:
sudo ln -s /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/R /usr/local/bin/R

This solution also works to integrate the statistical programming language R (<http://www.r-project.org/>) into Matlab. The system call "R CMD BATCH My_R_Script.R" works when the proper environmental variable is set via: "setenv('DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH', '/usr/local/bin/');" I really appreciate this posting!
