It's running! I'll let you know if it stops again, but it works right now, after switching -sd and -i 😊


Thanks a lot!

-i needs to be followed by the input volume
Move /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/sub-08-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz right after -i.

Hey again,

sorry for my many problems, but this did not work as well (same error)

I hope the file attached is the logfile? There is no .log- file in my freesurfer directory, maybe you could tell me where to find it.

Sorry for all the troubles.

 

‘-sd /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/’ needs to be added to your recon-all command line. I see you only have ‘-sd’ added.

 

Can you attach recon-all.log if you continue to have problems?

 

Best,

 

Yujing

Hello,

 

I've tried the echo command, which didn't work. Afterwards I tried -sd:

 

recon-all -s sub-04 -i -sd /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/sub-04-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz -all ; recon-all -s sub-08 -i -sd /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/sub-08-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz -all ; recon-all -s sub-19 -i -sd /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/sub-19-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz -all

 

It created the following:


ERROR: cannot find -sd
Linux bam7-mint-chel 5.15.0-47-generic #51-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 11 07:51:15 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

As I've said, I've tried everything now. Normally, it always worked after setting

  1. FREESURFER_HOME=/path
  2. SUBJECTS_DIR=/Subjectdirectorypath
  3. souce FREESURFER_HOME=SetUpFreeSurfer.sh

 

and then I've ran recon-all with just the subject names.. Now, even if adding the path, it does not find my subjects dir. anymore.

 

Best wishes

Livia

Hi Livia,

 

I’m not sure why your $SUBJECTS_DIR is not recognized.

 

In the same terminal window,

1. echo $SUBJECTS_DIR

2. submit your recon-all

 

If this doesn’t work, you can use -sd flag as suggested. In you case, add ‘-sd /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/’ to your recon-all.

 

Best,

 

Yujing

Hi,

 

I've tried it today with the path in the command line:

 

recon-all -s sub-04 -i /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/sub-04-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz -all ; recon-all -s sub-08 -i /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/sub-08-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz -all ; recon-all -s sub-19 -i /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/sub-19-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz -all

 

However, it returns the following error (again):


ERROR: environment variable SUBJECTS_DIR not set
  this can be done by setting it in the shell before
  executing recon-all or by using the -sd flag
ERROR: environment variable SUBJECTS_DIR not set
  this can be done by setting it in the shell before
  executing recon-all or by using the -sd flag
ERROR: environment variable SUBJECTS_DIR not set
  this can be done by setting it in the shell before
  executing recon-all or by using the -sd flag

 

I asked for showing up my subjects directory, which returns the following (correctly):


lirh717c@bam7-mint-chel:/freesurfer$ $SUBJECTS_DIR
bash: /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN: Is a directory

I do not understand what could still cause the problems...

 

Thank you so much in advance!

Best

Livia

Hi Livia,

 

Yes, put /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN/ in front of .nii.gz in the command.

 

SUBJECTS_DIR is not used to find images specified in recon-all command line.

 

Best,

 

Yujing

Dear Yujing,

Thank your for your fast reply. So you mean that I need to paste the whole path (home/../../..) before the name of the .nii.gz file in the command ?

It is weird, because I have always used it as sent and it worked until today. My subjects directory (called V5LGN, see mail below) contains all compressed nifti files of my subjects and additional output directories of the successfully processed subjects. This is why I thought that with the specification of SUBJECTS _DIR freesurfer knows where the subjects called are since they are there on this level without any subdirectories...?

Best
Livia

Hi Livia,

 

SUBJECTS_DIR is the root directory for recon-all processed data. Each individual subject will have a separate subdirectory under SUBJECTS_DIR.

 

You need to specify full path to your images in recon-all command line.

 

Best,

 

Yujing

Betreff: Problem with recon-all --> nii.gz file not found

 

Dear Sir or Madame,

 

for my thesis I am running recon-all on my subjects' nii.gz T1-weighted scans. I use Freesurfer 7.0 on a Linux Mint 21"Vanessa".

 

I am using the following layout:

recon-all -s sub-03 -i sub-03-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz -all

This worked for me in december, whereby all my subjects were processed successfully and freesurfer created the directories. However, today I wanted to continue my work, but now it says that the file "sub-03-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz" ist not found (error message):

ERROR: cannot find sub-03-ses-01_T1w.nii.gz
Linux bam7-mint-chel 5.15.0-47-generic #51-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 11 07:51:15 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

recon-all -s sub-03 exited with ERRORS at Thu Jan 12 16:59:42 CET 2023

For more details, see the log file
To report a problem, see MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "secure-web.cisco.com" claiming to be http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/BugReporting

 

This applies not only to one file, but for all of them. I have also tried to rerun recon-all of another file that had been successful in december, I have also copied and renamed it to not overwrite it.. but none of the data sets were found!

 

For Setup, I have defined my $FREESURFER_HOME, my $SUBJECTS_DIR and also the source (SetUpFreeSurfer.sh).

After typing the following: source $FREESURFER_HOME/SetUpFreeSurfer.sh

... I can now clearly see, that I am in the correct SUBJECTS_DIR
-------- freesurfer-linux-ubuntu22_x86_64-7.3.2-20220804-6354275 --------
Setting up environment for FreeSurfer/FS-FAST (and FSL)
FREESURFER_HOME   /freesurfer
FSFAST_HOME       /freesurfer/fsfast
FSF_OUTPUT_FORMAT nii.gz
SUBJECTS_DIR      /home/lirh717c/Desktop/V5LGN
MNI_DIR           /freesurfer/mni
 
After navigating to this directory (cd $SUBJECTS_DIR) I can also see all my files. Additionally, I can open freesurfer now and open 
the scans within freeview, so that the following appears to me:
- my data are okay and I can open them
- freesurfer is generally running (only thing is one warning: (process:3965): Gtk-WARNING **: 17:07:37.677: Locale not supported by C library.
    Using the fallback 'C' locale.)
- even if setting subjects directory to another directory, it is not working, the problem is neither the data nor the directory
- the subjects directory has correctly been set and I can access it --> my files are seen here

To this reason, I have no ideas anymore.
I am looking forward to your reply!
 
Kind regards
Livia Rühr
