Hi Joe,
Did you edit launchd.conf directly? If so, you'll need to reboot.
Alternatively, you could use launchctl:
launchctl setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH /Applications/MATLAB...
This worked for me. If this still doesn't work for you, try
starting Kepler from a terminal window:
# echo $DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
/Applications/MATLAB_R2010a.app/bin/maci64/
# open /Applications/Kepler-2.2/Kepler.app

I tried that, didn't work.
Again, I have no problem setting system-wide environment variables in launchd.conf. If I set "foo" to
"bar" then "foo" is set to "bar" in my environment. But if I set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to
anything, it's like I didn't set it at all.
Exactly the same behavior with environment.plist. It seems to me like
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is on some kind of blacklist.

I always heard that if you wanted to set environment variables for GUI
applications in OS X, you needed to edit the environment.plist file. A
stackoverflow thread
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/135688/setting-environment-variables-in-os-x)
says it can be set on a per-user basis at ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist.
However, that thread also says that launchd.conf also works for GUI
applications. Maybe try setting it in environment.plist to see if that
makes a difference.

Hi, I'm trying to run Matlab codes from Kepler in Mac OS (Snow Leopard). As an
inexperienced user I'm simply firing up the prepackaged Mac OS distribution of
Kepler and double-clicking on the app icon.
It's no problem constructing a workflow with a "Matlab expression" in it, but
when I run I get a stacktrace about the Matlab libraries not being on the
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH.
I'm having no trouble finding those libraries manually; they're right where
they should be in my Matlab install, and they're 64 bit, and everything seems
in order.
Setting DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH doesn't seem possible in Mac OS; I can set
environment variables in launchd.conf, but launchd appears to silently ignore
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH; maybe it's special-casing it for some reason.
I'm having trouble finding a previous post on this list, or a bug in Kepler's
bugzilla database, or a documentation section or FAQ entry that explains how to
solve this. It's clear that some people have had problems with this in the
past, but I don't see a clear description of what I should be doing. Any and
all advice welcome.
Mac OS version: 10.6.7
Java version: 1.6.0_24 (Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 19.1-b02-334,
mixed mode))
Kepler version: 2.2
Matlab version: R2011a
