The attached program looks fine and works for me.

These errors clearly indicate that the default load path hasn't been
initialized properly, since all m-file functions are missing.

My guess remains the same as before, OCTAVE_HOME needs to be set to the
directory containing Octave to set up the load path correctly.

When I run your program with OCTAVE_HOME set correctly, it works for me
on both Debian and Windows 10.
