Hi Peng, Are you sure you’re deleting the subject folder from within the SUBJECTS_DIR?
rm -rf $SUBJECTS_DIR/ben Should clear the issue. best Andrew From: <freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> on behalf of Peng Liu <claudialiu1...@gmail.com> Reply-To: FS Help <freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> Date: Friday, March 20, 2020 at 6:39 AM To: FS Help <freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> Subject: [Freesurfer] Error with recon-all: You are trying to re-run an existing subject with (possibly) new input data (-i). External Email - Use Caution Dear all, I am trying to run recon-all command for a subject ben. Before I perform this command, I have exported SUBJECTS_DIR to a folder with only T1 data for this subject ben in it. However after I entered the command "recon-all -s ben -i T1.nii -all", this error showed up: ERROR: You are trying to re-run an existing subject with (possibly) new input data (-i). If this is truly new input data, you should delete the subject folder and re-run, or specify a different subject name. If you are just continuing an analysis of an existing subject, then omit all -i flags. I have tried all the suggestions listed in the error information, but none worked. Does anyone have any suggestion? I would really appreciated it.
