I have Matlab R2024b. I tried to run dynare as follows:
clear
clc
close all
addpath(genpath('C:\dynare'))
dynare RBC_baseline.mod
but I got this error message:
Error in matlab_ver_less_than (line 35)
r = verLessThan('matlab', verstr);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Error in dynare (line 90)
if matlab_ver_less_than('9.5') % Should match the test in meson.build
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Error in run_dynare (line 6)
dynare RBC_baseline.mod
^^^^^^
I was able to run it successfully on R2023b
Strange. Can you provide the full error message?
That is the full error message. I copied and pasted from the Matlab command window.
I have both R2023b and R2024b installed on my computer. Could it be that this creates some kind of conflict?
Strangely, on R2023b Dynare runs fine
But it looks like there must have been one more line at the top of the error message.
So fare I have tested Dynare with Matlab R2023b and R2024a and it works fine. The error is only in R2024b
When you type ver in the command window, does it show something like:

The difference might be the operating system?
What is your output of
dir([matlabroot '/toolbox'])
I get
. curvefit eml livecode parallel simulink

Thanks anyways. I can use R2024a instead of R2024b with Dynare, so it’s not a big problem for me
