Problem installing standalone application that was created using app compiler

7 views (last 30 days)
I created a standalone application using app compiler. I was trying to follow the steps as in this link , under this "Install MATLAB Generated Standalone Application", in the first step, the file type that I have is ".INSTALL" file type and it is not opening at all. I tried using "Microsft expression 4" to open this, but it is showing an error to read a file.

MATLAB Compiler does not support cross platform compile, so we need to create a standalone app for Linux by Linux machines and app for Windows by Windows machines. You had created .install file, I suppose you were using Linux.
With the install file (in this case "MyAppInstaller_web.install"), you need to do
./MyAppInstaller_web.install
in Linux machine to install the standalone app. It might take several tens of seconds for the install wizard to appear.
If you want to install the standalone app in Windows, you need to compile your scripts in Windows machine and MyAppInstaller_web.exe will be created. Just double clicking the exe in Windows machine, the install wizard will be appeared.

Thank you. Has anyone found any work around for this? (I am finding that this is still true for the MATLAB Compiler. I tried compiling an app through Linux and can't run it on a Mac or Windows.)
