Link Matlab to Comsol in MAC - path problem

in the bin/comsol.ini file I defined
MLROOT=/Applications/MATLAB_R2011b.app
The problem is that when clicking the app COMSOL with Matlab a problem appears.
checking the setlog I says something like
the path is not found: applications/matlab_R2011.app/bin/bin/matlab.
Then I check in matlab and actually I onlye have the path: applications/matlab_R2011.app/bin/matlab.
As you can see only one "bin" folder appears not 2. So I guess the solution is to fix the comsol.ini file and put one bin folder but I don't know how to do it.
any help

My suggestion, locate the ini file and edit it with notepad (previously make a copy for backup). I'm astonished there is no C:\ ... or something more absolute in your path

Good luck

I fixed it... Actually I chose the wrong file... it was in the Mac64 folder and modified the files:
comsol.ini
comsolserver.ini
In this case there is no MLROOT, instead I used the typical -Dsc which appears in the manual. I copy and paste the path from the comsol manual since it was not there before.
I still keep the MLROOT=/Applications/MATLAB_R2011b.app in the other file which was somewhere else
PS: to clarify my mistake in Mac there is a folder COMSOL42 and the icon app COMSOL42, First I chose the icon with right click to get the contents and found the bin folder and the comsol.ini file (incorrect file since it has the MLROOT script)....but then I chose the folder COMSOL42, went to the bin folder and then to MAC64 folder and found
comsol.ini
comsolserver.ini
and works....however I have a new problem
Matlab opened, I upload my file and got an error, smthg like line 1209 X# : etc... The real mistake was that "[ ]" are not necessary in the script, so I deleted all the brackets as they were suggested by Matlab and fixed that problem....
Now when I run it, it runs really fast compared to before but I have the following mistake
Java exception occurred:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Not active: CDOTransaction(1)
at
org.eclipse.net4j.util.lifecycle.LifecycleUtil.checkActive(LifecycleUtil.java:67)
at
etc
etc
Error in weak (line 10)
model = ModelUtil.create('Model');
BUT i don't know what is this error about..any help is appreciated

I have the same Problem.
It occurs when a model is loaded to the server and I try to export an other one with a different ModelName to the comsol server.
Did you solve your Problem? I also need to find one, because I want to handle multiple models within the same comsol-server.

model2=mphload('PATH_&_MODEL.mph.mph','Model2');
seems to work at least within matlab
