Hi Sahil,

Thanks for your post. Now i am able to install octave 3.4.3 with the
suggested steps in the link that you gave. But it is very old version and
doesn't supports tool boxes that i need. So i downloaded octave 4.0.0.tar.gz
installed manually and i am able to open and run some simple commands. When
i try to install toolboxes it gives the below error.

online method:
/pkg install -forge struct
error: support for url transfers was disabled when Octave was built
error: called from
    get_forge_pkg at line 40 column 14
    get_forge_download at line 26 column 12
    pkg at line 393 column 29/

Then i searched Octave forum for possible cause and some threads suggested
to install /libcurl/ library that i already had and uptodate. In another
thread download and install toolboxes locally so i tried install struct
toolbox got the below error.

offline method:
/pkg install struct-1.0.14.tar.gz
unable to open /usr/local/share/octave/4.0.0/etc/macros.texi for reading
error: called from '__makeinfo__' in file
/usr/local/share/octave/4.0.0/m/help/__makeinfo__.m near line 103, column 5/

Please help thank you
