Dear Loris,
The actual error could be something totally different, the MATLAB
installer doesn't exactly shine in error reporting...
I think you can trace down the actual error message in a temporary
directory that is created by the MATLAB installer somewhere.
Can you find anything in /tmp, possibly in a subdirectory that starts
with "eb-" (the one that is mentioned in the EasyBuild log file)?
regards,
Kenneth

The EC contains

If I overwrite this in a hook with
self.cfg['java_options'] = '-Xmx256m'
which is the default value, the build fails in the same way but with
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xmx256m
What am I doing wrong?
Cheers,
Loris
