Problem when making a very long cylinder in 3D modeling

Hello.
I'm using COMSOL 3.3 in VertualBox and going to make a very long 3D model (radius of 1cm and height of 800cm).
However, when i make a cylinder with this geometry, the cylinder become block, which means that circle is replaced by square.
This also happens when I make circle in 2D work plane and extrude it to z=800.
Please tell me what should I do. I attached my modeling file.

Hi
I do not have a 3.3 running, but I suspect that its due to your meshing, try to mesh only the circle first with enough points alng the edge to make it look like a circle, then probably the domains will fill in for the rest

Good luck

Thank you a lot. Actually, not meshing before extruding, but meshing after extruding was worked.
After extrude the circle to cylinder (which looks like a block), it became more and more looks like a cylinder as I refining mesh.
