For each supported system a technical information page is given. Please refer to the page that corresponds to your system, to read about special features or restrictions of this MuPAD version.
For users outside of Germany it may be much faster to use one of our official mirror sites than connecting to the MuPAD home site. Have a look at the list of MuPAD ftp sites.
In general two releases are supported: an Official Release, which contains a stable version of MuPAD and maybe a beta release, which contains latest feature for beta testers and MuPAD "wizards". Please refer to the CONTENTS file for detailed information.
You can either use the Download Form or follow the instructions given in this paragraph.
The following links refer to the MuPAD Release 1.3.0. First connect via anonymous ftp to any MuPAD ftp site and change to the MuPAD directory.

This depends on your operating system. Please first refer to paragraph (4) of this page and then to the Installation Guide for detailed information.
After the binaries and the library are installed, the MuPAD environment has to be configured. For this, refer to the section Environment variables of the installation guide. After that, the MuPAD terminal version can be started with mupad and the X11 version with xmupad.
The easiest way to obtain a license key is to fill-in our Web LICENSE FORM. Otherwise, get the license file from any MuPAD ftp site, follow its instructions and send the filled in license via email to MuPAD-distribution@uni-paderborn.de.
If there are problems while copying, installing or running MuPAD then please send us a bug report by utilizing our web fill-in form.
