Subject: Re: [ros-users] Matlab and Ipc issue
Hey Tien,

I've never seen a 'Directory access failure' warning message before. From a
quick google search I found this page:
http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/en/data/1-18KUW/index.html?product=ML&solution=1-18KUW

It seems like you didn't compile ipc or it's not in your path..."libipc.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory."

Can you run 'locate libipc.so'? Is it found?

Did you run 'rosmake ipc_bridge_ros' ?
