Hi Gijs,

The error message is indicating that you have downloaded (the very recently released) version 5.4, but that the license.dat (or trial passcode) that you fed the installer is for version 5.3a.

If you are trying to install version 5.3a, then you will need to go back to the download page and make sure you download 5.3a. The default is 5.4.

If you are trying to install version 5.4, then make sure to provide a version 5.4 license.dat file (or trial passcode) in the installer. To obtain that, connect with your COMSOL representative (https://www.comsol.com/contact ).

Best regards,

Jeff
