Hi Andrew,


it works on the "frontend" of  our cluster:

But not any more on the nodes:

Hi Philipp,

 

Can you let us know the OS and version you’re running on? The license format was updated for v6. It should be backwards compatible, but it’s possible it’s not anymore on newer systems.

 

thanks

Andrew

Subject: [Freesurfer] license file not working

        External Email - Use Caution        

Hi FreeSurfer specalists,
 

for some historical reconstruction I had to download an old FS5.3-Version,

on a Linux System, untarred etc. - it seems there was no .license = hidden license

file coming with the download, and no license.txt file.

 

I requested one (usual link) and received a license.txt file, and put that

into the FS home folder. When using the command mri_convert I get the

error message that an invalid License file is used.

Questions:

 

(1) Is a .license file (so, a hidden file) needed for itself or in addition?

(2) Why does a freshly delivered license.txt file not work?

(3) Any other solutions or ideas?

 

Bw,

Philipp
