 When MATLAB is not installed in the default location, the bin/*architecture* directory within the MATLAB root directory must be added to the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The path can be added to the environment variable within the shell startup configuration file (for example, .bashrc for bash shell or .tcshrc for tcsh).
