Install matlab 2020a problem ubuntu aborted

Hi, I have been trying to install matlab 2020a in ubuntu 18.04 with no success. After calling the sudo ./install option the installer doesn't even apper and the only message I get is:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/mathworks/laisserver/api/LaisServer
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mathworks.laisserver.api.LaisServer

	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:357)
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'JailContainerException'
  what():  Error: 63: Connector couldn't start
Aborted

The java version the computer is running is:

openjdk version "11.0.7" 2020-04-14

So far, I haven't been able to find a solution/ uderstand this error.

Make sure you have the "java" folder that comes zipped with the Matlab directory tree at the same directory level where the "./install" executable is.
