Error with "syms"

Hi, I'm Javier,

when I write "syms var1" for example on MatLab, I receive this message:

Error using mupadmex Internal error with symbolic engine. Quit and restart MATLAB.

Error in symengine

Error in sym (line 189) symengine;

Error in sympref>implementedSymprefs (line 142) y = {'FourierParameters', sym([1,-1]), 'MuPAD', 'sym';...

Error in sympref (line 81) iSymprefs = implementedSymprefs;

Error in syms (line 195) calledFromBase = mupadmex('', 8);

Could anyone help me, please?

Thanks so much,

Regards,

Javier

I suggest reinstall of the symbolic toolbox. If that is not enough I suggest that you find prefdir and move it aside and restart MATLAB.

Hi, thanks for your answer. I reinstalled symbolic toolbox and moved prefdir aside and anything... what can I do?

I think you will need to contact Mathworks for free installation assistance.

Would you happen to be using Linux? There are often problems with incompatible libraries on the newer Linux releases.
