I am doing a parametric sweep in COMSOL with the geometry. The problem is, it is a large parameter space and a few combinations which would be unreasonable to check give an error. It is a stationary solver and what I need is something in COMSOL matlab code to tell me if there is inverted geometry or too many iterations such that I can skip that set of parametric values. I get the error:

For example, can I have COMSOL output the iterations as it solves such that if it hits a certain amount, I can quickly tell if I need to skip that set of parameters. This is inside a huge FOR loop as I need to sweep over a very large parametric space.

"??? Java exception occurred:

I don't know if you got an answer to your post.
I am stuck with a similar problem.
With a stationnary solver I would like COMSOL to calculate all the parameters even when he didn't converge for one particular parameter. For the moment when COMSOL is not able to converge for a parameter it just stops as you said. This is bothering. I am sure there is a solution but I cannot find it...
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Check for "stop condition" in the help. It's explained pretty well there.
