Hi Shahar

Can you look at the input to that step? Usually it means something prior has gone wrong (like the skull stripping remove the entire brain or something). And maybe post a couple of images of the processing (the orig.mgz, the T1.mgz, the brainmask.mgz, …)

Cheers

Bruce

Dear freesurfer team,

I am attempting to use freesurfer using fmriprep but I get the following error message:

error: No such file or directory

error: MRInormFindControlPoints: could not find enough control points
error: No such file or directory
error: MRInormFindControlPoints failed 

I've searched the archive but couldn't find a solution. 

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to trouble-shoot this one? 

Also, I've attached the recon-all.log in case it's of any use.
