Dear Ashwati - Check out the instructions in the example config file: https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/dmrirc
... # Diffusion gradient tables (file names can be relative to dcmroot) ... # Diffusion b-value tables (file names can be relative to dcmroot) ...
Because you defined dcmroot, these filenames should be relative paths (which you did correctly for the DWI nifti file). The error occurs because it prepends dcmroot to the filenames you provided, so there's a replication (check what the error says and you'll see that).
Best, Anastasia.

Dear Freesurfer developers,
I am running the trac-all -prep for my DWI data on Freesurfer version 7.2.0. The configuration file seems to be alright but when I start running the -prep step it gives me the error:
writing to /Volumes/DRCS_MAIN_SERVER/DRCS/BIOCIS/Neuroimaging/Stats/Freesurfer/diffusion_tracula/BIOC_0001_v01_FS/dmri/dwi_orig.1.nii.gz...

I have attached the log file, error file, bvals and bvecs and the configuration file and as the screenshot below shows: the directory does have the bvals.txt and bvecs.txt files, so I’m not sure why it’s giving me this error? I thought the error was because the bvals and bvecs were given in rows, so I transposed them so they are now in columns but it still doesn’t work.

I have run tracula before with no issues so I’m really lost here. Could you please help?
Thank you so much!
Best,
Ashwati
