Matlab install - Java permission denied

Matlab version 2012. I know there are many threads about this, suggesting to chmod +x the following files (if you are in installation directory):

sys/java/jre/glnx86/jre/bin/java

sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/bin/java

I also chmodded the install file in root of installation directory. However, after running sudo ./install I still get:

Preparing installation files ...

Installing ...

./install: 1: eval: /tmp/mathworks_4880/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre/bin/java: Permission denied

Finished

How is this possible? :)

I've found the answer, no matter how weird it is. The problem was 64bit OS. When I tried with 32bit, Matlab installation worked and every other app I had previously trouble installing. So now I stick to 32bit.
