It does not exist and cannot be created in a shared cluster. Is there a way to define a different folder for /scratch/tp24093955057547375.load_mgh.m.mgh?

Do you have permission to /scratch? Does it exist?

Hi all,

We are trying to run recon-all with -localGI but running into an unknown
permission denied error:

$ recon-all -s sub-1001 -localGI

```

make_outer_surface('/path/to/FS_SUBJECTS_DIR/sub-1001/surf/tmp-mris_compute_lgi-lh.pial/lh.pial.filled.mgz',15,'/path/to/FS_SUBJECTS_DIR/sub-1001/surf/tmp-mris_compute_lgi-lh.pial/lh.pial-outer');
 exit

Our MATLAB environment is properly setup and we regularly run other
FreeSurfer-MATLAB commands. So I do not think that is causing the issue.
