Hi Anastasia,
I am trying to run Tracula for the first time in our lab and I'm getting errors during step 2 that seem to involve how the program wants to be launched via grid. I've attached the configuration file I'm using and the error message is below...

Although we DO have a grid, I am trying to test the program for feasibility purposes, just on my own system's terminal, since we aren't sure how results will look with our specific data set (3.0 Tesla Siemens, 64 directional DWI @ b=1000, with 1 b0 image). We are very interested in performing tractography in T1-space. I am open to running this over the grid, if that's really the best way to do it, but the problem is that I don't see anywhere to specify the name of the queue that should be used for launching the program.
Can you please tell me how to launch this without using the so-called long.q and short.q? We typically launch jobs to our grid using our "bash.linux.q", but I haven't been able to locate a place in the configuration file, or any switches to use in the cmd line, to specify that this queue should be used. I tried specifically launching Tracula's step 2 onto our bash.linux.q via the cmd line using "qsub", but received the same old error I had been getting. I checked the data independently using "bedpostx_preproc.sh", and it appears that all the required data are set up properly. As far as I can tell, the only issue we have is this inability to use the long.q and short.q.
What do you think?
I've cc'd our IT specialist, Henry Mensch, who oversees our grid system in case you need someone to chime-in with any specific information about how our Linux systems are set-up.
Thanks very much for your time,
