Parfor Error Handling results in falsely reported error in each loop

Hello, I have a problem regarding parfor loops. I try to solve an array of pdeobjects, that all have a different partly different geometry. Since for some of those geometries the pdenonlin solver doesnt find a solution ( -> Step size to small, to many iterations) I tried using an error handle:

Torque=zeros(1,(length(sCalc.angle)-1));
Error=zeros(1,(length(sCalc.angle)-1));

parfor i=1:1:(length(sCalc.angle)-1)
  try
    results = solvepde(sMotor(i));
    Torque(i)=getTorque2(results);
    result(i)=results;
    Error(i)=0;
  catch
    Error(i)=1;
  end
end

This works for a normal for:

Error  0 0 0 0 1 0

But when using parfor, even though it doesnt fail I get an Error for each loop:

Error  1 1 1 1 1 1

What am I doing wrong?

Not sure because we don't know what these are: sCalc, sMotor, solvepde, and getTorque2. But instead of catching your Error in a matrix, try to display the error message in the catch statement. That may reveal the error source.

Torque=zeros(1,(length(sCalc.angle)-1));
Error=zeros(1,(length(sCalc.angle)-1));
parfor i=1:1:(length(sCalc.angle)-1)
  try
    results = solvepde(sMotor(i));
    Torque(i)=getTorque2(results);
    result(i)=results;
    Error(i)=0;
  catch ME
    disp(ME.message); %Will show the error info
    Error(i)=1;
  end
end

Well, rookie mistake on my part, doing it like this it works. Would recommend to not use pde arrays in the way that I use them, since they need a lot of memory!

Works like this:

Torque=zeros(1,(length(sCalc.angle)-1));
Error=zeros(1,(length(sCalc.angle)-1));
result(length(sCalc.angle)-1)=pde.StationaryResults;
parfor i=1:1:(length(sCalc.angle)-1)
  try
    result(i) = solvepde(sMotor(i));
    Torque(i)=getTorque2(result(i));
    Error(i)=0;
  catch
    Error(i)=1;
  end
end
