just remove it and rerun recon-all with -make all. Something went wrong during write, maybe a full partition, maybe a network glitch, we'll never know

Absolutely, sorry about that, the group is now cc'd.
the ls -l says: -rw-rw-r-- 1 vhasfcwui cind 0 Nov 6 15:57 lh.sphere
so it has 0 size to it, and I can't open it in tksurfer

Perhaps I should first try deleting the file and rerun as you recommended?
Thanks, Adam

can you cc the list on your replies so that others can answer? What does ls -l say about the sphere? Can you open it in tksurfer? Maybe the partition filled at some point when it was being written but things opened up later? You might just deleted the lh.sphere file and run recon-all -make all -s <subject> cheers Bruce On Fri, 8 Nov 2013, Adam Mezher wrote: Hi Bruce, Yes I checked and the partition is not full, there should be ample space available.
