Hi List,
could anyone point out to me which tool/library is used by freesurfer binaries to read the .license file? I am positive my .license file is correct (I have used the same file before) and have tried every combination of permissions, but on my Opensuse 12.3 Distro I keep getting:
ERROR: Invalid FreeSurfer license key found in license file /usr/local/freesurfer/.license
So I'm thinking ti must be OS -related. Also, I have not been able to checkout the source code, the error message is:
Could not map memory to RCS archive /usr/fscvsroot/dev/distribution/average/fsaverage.tar.gz
Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Hi List,
with reference to my below messages, I have now determined that the license file is considered invalid by freesurfer executables since i have upgraded from opensuse 12.2 to 12.3.
The upgrade to freesurfer 5.2 had nothing to do with it - in fact, setting the proper environments variables and running 5.1 from by backed up, untouched, old install dir and .license file changes nothing (i.e. not even 5.1 is working now).
Any idea what my be going on here? I have tried every combination of file permissions and contents I could think of.
Much appreciated
Nicola

Hi,
that is exactly what I did (see my first message) - that's why I'm so puzzled!

Just use the license file from your previous version (or you can apply for a new license for free, but this is redundant).
cp $OLD_FREESURFER_HOME/.license $NEW_FREESURFER_HOME/.license where the $OLD and $NEW are directories freesurfer 5.1 and 5.2 sit, respectively.

Hi - no luck unfortunately (I had already tried changing permissions)....
