I'm trying to install MATLAB R2015b on Ubuntu 15.10 via an iso installer, but when I get to the 'Choose Installation Folder' stage and click next, I get an error message:



Failed to Create Folder (/usr/local/MATLAB/R2015b/)


The default folder is set to /usr/local/MATLAB/R2015b and I have tried others (/opt/ and /usr/local/bin/) but get the same error message. Does anyone know how to fix this?



I have also tried rerunning the installer via:



sudo ./install


but just get the command not found error.
