I am attempting to open a NIFTI file in freeview.  Freeview will open however, it gives the error "Failed to load MRI" and then the location and name of the file. We did verify that the nifti file does open regularly when accessed on the desktop. Below is the code used and the error in the terminal.  What suggestions do you have to get the file to open in freeview?
