External Email - Use Caution Thanks for the reply, all.
The issues I'm having are the same as they were in my prior thread, found here: https://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg63458.html I tried everything up to and including compiling everything from scratch (including FS itself, missing libs, PETSC, etc.). The main takeaway is that I pretty convincingly narrowed the issue down to PETSC+Ubuntu 18.04, the most pertinent details for that being in the following post: https://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg63702.html Back when I was active in that thread, I emailed the PETSC mailing list and got no response, and at the time I was pretty busy with other projects so I had to let it go for the time being; I maintained my old RHEL6 server so people could continue to use FS. Now with everyone in quarantine (and RHEL6 entering ELS this November), it's a decent time to look back into this issue. I wouldn't have reached back out to the FS list, however when I saw that a focus was being placed on Ubuntu (and that there was a working Ubuntu VM), I became hopeful that maybe this issue was resolved?

I think Ubuntu eliminated some jpeg/png packages from their repos. Those can be downloaded and installed manually,e.g., libpng12-0_1.2.54-1ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb, libjpeg62_6b2-3_amd64.deb. That is part of the reason we made an Ubuntu 18 VM available with everything pre-installed. The VM is essentially what has been used for the freesurfer course which runs mostly freeview commands with some mri* commands (though I believe a recon-all also works). The VM is running binaries built on CentOS7 - as the reference platforms for freesurfer dev are currently CentOS and MacOS. We are looking at making a .deb installer for freesurfer on Ubuntu though. There is some info on the wiki about packages required to compile the source on Ubuntu - but you don’t need all of these to run (even the CentOS) binaries. https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/BuildRequirements<https://surfer..nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/BuildRequirements> - R.

Both the current CentOS and the dev builds continue to have issues (even when compiled from scratch) on my Ubuntu 18.04 servers. Thanks!

It looks like CentOS 8 was released around September of 2019. While we do not currently build/test on CentOS8, I am sure it will eventually be supported. Given some users will continue to use CentOS 6 even after 11/2020 and that many people have been running the freesurfer 6 release on CentOS6, then even the upcoming freesurfer 7 release is targeting CentOS6, CentOS7 and Ubuntu linux (as well as Mac OS). There is also currently an Ubuntu 18 VM with freesurfer 6 and the beta release of freesurfer 7 pre-installed which you can find here, https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/VM_67 - R.

I tried installing freesurfer version 7.0 beta 1 but failed due to some unresolved dependencies (tried on a virtual centos 7 and worked fine) !! so, when will there be support for centos 8, thank you Best regards Mina _______________________________________________ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu<mailto:Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu> https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer _______________________________________________ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer _______________________________________________ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer
