I'm attempting to run the longitudinal pipeline, as described in this tutorial page (MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "secure-web.cisco.com" claiming to be https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FsTutorial/LongitudinalTutorial). I've tried the pipeline on 13 subjects (from the Alzheimer Disease Neuroimaging Initiative), each with varying number of time points. For all of them, I succeeded in the first two steps ( [CROSS] & [BASE] ), but recon-all threw an error for all subjects & for all time-points midway through the third step ( [LONG] ).

For example, for the subject 128_S_4832, I've run the cross-sectional step for all time points, resulting in corresponding folders called $SUBJECTS_DIR/128_S_4832_Ses01 and so on, and a template in the folder $SUBJECTS_DIR/128_S_4832 (from the [BASE] step). The exact command that exited with ERRORS was:

recon-all -long 128_S_4832_Ses01 128_S_4832 -all -parallel -openmp 16

Like in the first two step, I was using parallel computing with 16 cores. From recon-all.log in the folder $SUBJECTS_DIR/128_S_4832_Ses01.long.128_S_4832/scripts, it appears that the last command that reported no issue was:

mris_curvature -seed 1234 -thresh .999 -n -a 5 -w -distances 10 10 rh.inflated

After this step, recon-all threw an error. The last four lines in my log file are:

Usage: reconbatchjobs logfile cmdfile1 [cmdfile2 ...]
See recon-all script for examples.

recon-all -s 128_S_4832_Ses01.long.128_S_4832 exited with ERRORS at Sat Apr 30 22:10:07 HKT 2022

I've searched the list and no similar errors have been reported.

Many thanks for your advice in advance!
