Re: [Freesurfer] FreeSurfer 6 recon-all exiting with errors at -cortparc step

2015-12-10 Thread Zaretskaya, Natalia 
Hi Bruce,

I re-ran the -cortparc step with the current dev version
freesurfer-Linux-centos6_x86_64-dev-20151209

It took ~6 hours and the error is still the same. It seems to run through the 
left hemisphere, but crashes on the right one.

Cheers!
Natalia

HI Natalia

can you try the dev version? I'm pretty sure I fixed this. You can just rerun 
mris_ca_label. We'll hopefully be cutting a new stable 6 sometime soon

cheers
Bruce

Dear all,
I am running recon-all with FreeSurfer 6 stable version on launchpad and
have it exiting with errors with all of my 43 brains, always at the same
stage (-cortparc). The same brains used to run through recon-all smoothly
with the dev version just a month or so ago, and I am not doing anything
essentially different than before, except using FreeSurfer 6, so I am
wondering what’s wrong. The output of recon-all before the error looks o.k.
I attached an example recon-all.log file.
Many thanks in advance for your help!
