I am building a program in java that runs a COMSOL model in server mode. This program is executed multiple times by another external program and java needs to terminate each time. As such, I need to connect to and disconnect from the COMSOL server repeatedly. My issue is that the server window closes when either of these two commands are executed in java: ModelUtil.disconnect(); System.exit(0);

I could potentially tell the external program to restart a COMSOL server instance before running the java program each time, but surely there is a way to ensure the server stays open once I have disconnected from it.

I'm sure I am missing something very simple, but can't find the answer in the manual. Thanks for any help!

Figured it out.

FYI for anyone using Windows who encounters this issue...

Start the server with this command (or similar) in a Command Prompt: "C:\Program Files\COMSOL\COMSOL53\Multiphysics\bin\win64\comsolmphserver.exe" -multi on
