The error you mentioned indicates that COMSOL is
unable to create recovery data on disk. Normally COMSOL saves the current
simulation into a recovery directory, which is located in a profile
directory in your home directory. If there is not enough space in your home
directory, or if the path to the home directory contains "non-standard"
characters, this problem may occur. Possible solution is:

Turn off the recovery feature. Start COMSOL 4.1, go to the menu

Options > Preferences > Save

and un-check the "Recovery" check box.
