External Email - Use Caution Hi Zeynab,
that’s a “classic”, which is actually more suited for neurostars.org <https://neurostars.org/> as all fmriprep Q&A happens over there. That being said, you need to provide a Freesurfer license file when running fmriprep (check the corresponding information in the fmriprep docs <https://fmriprep.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html#the-freesurfer-license>). You can register and obtain one here: https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/registration.html <https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/registration.html>. Furthermore, you need to make this license file accessible inside the container, hence mounting it accordingly when running fmriprep. There’s a super helpful thread on neurostars.org <https://neurostars.org/t/freesurfer-license-file-error-in-fmriprep-1-0-0-rc10/989> wrt this, also covering singularity related fun (starting here <https://neurostars.org/t/freesurfer-license-file-error-in-fmriprep-1-0-0-rc10/989/9?u=peerherholz>).
