Works on one computer, Damaged or Invalid on another?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I have a 13.8MB ComSol MPH file that opens just fine on my ComSol 4.2a (4.2.1.110) Trial software.

However, when I upload it to the internet and download it into our university's Remote Desktop server to use our school's version of ComSol 4.2a (4.2.1.110), I get an error "COMSOL Multiphysics model file is damaged or not valid." It opened another model file just fine.

I need to use the Remote Desktop computer because it has more RAM!

What's going on?

Thank you in advance,
Arjun.

Same Problem here.

Since this post is more than half a year old, I think there is no solution to the problem?

I can't remember what I did to resolve the issue....either I re-created the model from scratch, or I cleared out any data relating to the mesh. This significantly reduced the file size....

It is also possible that ComSol on our University server was not fully updated...I remember it had some issues...
