How to use Academic License at Home

39 views (last 30 days)
I'm a student and I'm using Linux computer. My university gave me a license key for installing and I was using at campus but now, I'm on vacation and I need to using MATLAB. When I try to run MATLAB from command line, there is a licensing error:
Licensing error: -15,570. System Error: 115
Can I run MATLAB for a few days?

Error 15 indicates that you were not able to communicate with the license server.
In a situation such as that, a typical way to get around the problem would be to establish a VPN (Virtual Private Network) back to campus.
If you had been using a Professional / Commercial license then potentially your server could have been configured ahead of time to allow you to "borrow" a license; https://www.mathworks.com/help/install/license/borrow-licenses.html . However, that is not available for academic licenses.

Thanks for replying.
I guess, using VPN is ideal solution for me.
