$ cd /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017b # Matlab directory
$ cd bin/glnxa64
$ mkdir exclude
$ mv libfreetype* exclude
$ cd ../../sys/os/glnxa64
$ mkdir exclude
$ mv libstdc++.so.6* exclude
$ cd
These commands worked for me

Same issue, none missing from "ldd". R2018a on Arch Linux. So maybe solved in R2018b?

It may be possible that some dependent libraries for 'libmwdastudio.so' are missing in the system. Check if all the dependencies are present for this library by performing the following steps:
1. Using a terminal, navigate to the directory where the library is found:
>> cd /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017b/bin/glnxa64
2. Then run the 'ldd' command as shown:
>> ldd libmwdastudio.so
3. Observe for any missing libraries in the output. For example:
libXt.so.6 => not found
libXext.so.6 => not found
4. Install the missing libraries

hi, Rajesh Balagam
I meet this issue,too. I did as your steps but I didn't have any missing libraries. And after that I still have the problem when I invoke Simulink in Matlab2017b. It also showed "Can't load glnxa64/libmwjmi.so": GLNXA64/libQt5WebEngineCore.so.5: undefined symbol: XFreeEventData
Thanks, Xiaotong

I have the same problem on Fedora 27. Running "ldd libmwdastudio.so" shows that all libraries are found, none missing. I am running matlab using the symlink the installer created. I installed matlab in /opt/matlab-r2017b, and the simlink is to /opt/matlab-r2017b/bin/matlab.

In my case this happened because I called
${MATLAB_ROOT}/bin/glnxa64/MATLAB
instead of
${MATLAB_ROOT}/bin/matlab
