Your recon-all command doesn't have the directive to tell it what to run - add option '-all' to your command.

Hello FreeSurfer team,
I have been using FreeSurfer for some time without difficulty, but I recently encountered a problem that I cannot overcome. When I run recon-all using a command like this:
recon-all -s b047test -i /Users/danielweisholtz/Coregistration/raw/b047/b047_MRI_PreAx3DT1MPRAGE_July2022.nii.gz
the process terminates in just a few seconds without error.
The output reads as follows: fs-check-version --s b047test --o /var/folders/44/ndjzqbx515991v_9vt0j8spr0000gq/T//tmp.IMS2K1 Thu Jan 25 12:35:02 EST 2024

The subject folder is created along with some of the files, but not much is actually there. I had been using FreeSurfer 7.2.0 but I upgraded to 7.4.1, and this did not resolve the problem. Initially, I thought the problem was with the source file I was using, but I tested it with an MRI that I had previously used successfully with recon-all, and I got the same error. So something seems to have changed with my system that is causing this problem.
I am running FreeSurfer on a Mac using MacOS 12.6.
Many thanks for any assistance you can provide.
Sincerely, Dan Weisholtz
