Hm okay thanks - I’m curious what happens when you run:

cd $FREESURFER_HOME/lib/vtk/lib/vtk-5.6

# backup the shared objects

mv libvtkverdict.so libvtkverdict.so.bk

mv libvtkverdict.so.5.6 libvtkverdict.so.5.6.bk

# link them to 5.6

ln -s libvtkverdict.so.5.6.0 libvtkverdict.so

ln -s libvtkverdict.so.5.6.0 libvtkverdict.so.5.6

then do you get the same error from freeview?

Hi Markus,

What is the output when you run the following: (this will list libraries you have access to)

/sbin/ldconfig -N -v $(sed 's/:/ /' <<< $LD_LIBRARY_PATH) | grep libvtkverdict.so

best,

Andrew

Hi experts,

I am installing freeusrfer on our cluster which is running Centos6.

[gschwind@login1 ~]$ uname -a

Linux login1.cluster 2.6.32-696.1.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Apr 11 17:13:24 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Freeview aborts without any other complaint.

[gschwind@login1 ~]$ freeview

Abort

When running freeview.bin it complains about a libraries error:

[gschwind@login1 ~]$ freeview.bin 

freeview.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libvtkverdict.so.5.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I searched the archives and found this info to be given, 

[gschwind@login1 ~]$ ls -l $FREESURFER_HOME/lib/vtk/lib/vtk-5.6/*libvtkverdict*

-rwxr-xr-x 1 sagon unige 189017 Aug 17  2010 /opt/ebsofts/Core/FreeSurfer/5.3.0-centos6_x86_64/lib/vtk/lib/vtk-5.6/libvtkverdict.so

I then integrated this into bashrc

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$FREESURFER_HOME/lib/vtk/lib/vtk-5.6

however, the problem persists.

Any help is highly appreciated!

Thanks you!

Markus
