It looks like it failed to create the fsaverage symbolic link in your
SUBJECTS_DIR.
It looks like your
SUBJECTS_DIR=/mfs/cvl/groups/rugg/ruggdata/UTD/EXPT2/FMR/fmri102/freesurfer/ss.
Can you check if 'fsaverage' already exits in your SUBJECTS_DIR? If so, remove
it and re-run recon-all. Also, remove '-parallel' from recon-all command line.
Use '-threads 4' instead.

External Email - Use Caution
Hello Freesurfer support,
We have freesurfer/7.3.2 on CentOS7. This installation is working fine and the
recons (recon-all -autorecon-pial -s $SUBJECT -parallel) run to completion.
What we are trying to do:
Upgrade OS to ROCKY Linux 8.10. and trying to make freesurfer/7.3.2 work to
completion.The reason we are keeping 7.3.2 is to not add variance to the
current project.
What issue we are facing: <<snippet of the last few lines of the log below>>

ERROR: Label BA1_exvivo does not exist in SUBJECTS_DIR fsaverage!
The fsaverage link probably points to an older freesurfer version

More Context:
1. The same brain on Centos7 has no issues finishing recons. If needed, we
can share logs for this.
2. We have tried adding some fsaverage switches as seen on a few support
groups. "recon-all -autorecon-pial -s $SUBJECT -parallel --fs-subjects-dir
$SUBJECTS_DIR". This does not seem to help and does not get past the initial
phases of the run.
Hope this helps in giving the picture of what we are attempting to accomplish.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
