I am trying to install MCR on an linux hpc grid which does not support graphics.
I used the following line:
./install -mode silent -agreeToLicense yes -destinationFolder <folder>
And got the following error straight away

(Feb 09, 2016 08:54:30) Error: The application encountered an unexpected error and needs to close. You may want to try re-installing your product(s). More information can be found at /tmp/mathworks_hpc3230.log

(Feb 09, 2016 08:54:30) End -
I think the key problem here is, as I said, the system does not support X11 display stuff. Can I get it to install without needing input from a GUI?
Thanks,
john

This issue occurs if you do not have an X Server installed and you have the DISPLAY environment variable set. This variable should not be set if you do not have an X Server installed.
To resolve this issue you can unset the DISPLAY variable and restart the installer. The installer should then complete successfully.
