Dear Easybuilders,

I have been asked to install a module for the latest COMSOL 5.5, but there is no COMSOL .eb file in EB 4.3. I note that there was a PR concerning COMSOL two years ago:
https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyblocks/pull/1317

Can anyone share a working COMSOL .eb file for COMSOL 5.5 (or older)?

I assume that we should use the latest MATLAB 2020b for installation. I used the MATLAB-2019b.eb and updated the version number. One trick here is that the contents of the MATLAB ISO file must be converted into a .tar.gz file, and all files must first be made user-writable by: chmod -R u+w .

We already have COMSOL 5.3 installed, but I don't have a record of how we did it back then.

Thanks a lot for sharing your insights,
Ole
