Generic COM API Error

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

I found and adapted a COM based connection to the Comsol server to use with different prog. languages (mainly python). The original author and version is from git ("cmphy"). I can start the server, build the ModelUtil and ComsolUtil COM dispatcher. As soon as I try to connect to the server, I'm getting

APIError: Exception occured: ((0, 'ComsolCom', 'COMSOL API can only run in Excel Add-In.', None, 0, -2146233088)

Any idea of a fix or is this the COMSOL way of saying "no third party, please"?
