Not sure why, could be a specific version of FSL. You can try running the step that merges everything separately: bedpostx_postproc.sh /path/to/your/tracula/dir/subjname/dmri

On a separate note: I have to do some emergency travel so I will not be monitoring the list through the next week. ________________________________ From: freesurfer-bounces@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu freesurfer-bounces@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu on behalf of Chong, Catherine (Cat), Ph.D. Chong.Catherine@mayo.edu Sent: Thursday, October 21, 2021 6:16 PM To: freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu Subject: [Freesurfer] Dracula 7.2 -bedp error

External Email - Use Caution

Dear Tracula team,

I am running 7.2 on a computing cluster and the -prep stage completes without error. The dmri directory show the following files, below.

However, after running the second step ( -bedp), the files under dmri.bedpostX do not appear to have merged.

(bvals bvecs cancel commands.txt diff_slices logs monitor xfms). I am not able to find any error messages and the bedpostx_post.o529573 log is below.

I have also attached my script to the very bottom.

I would be grateful for your guidance in helping me solve this problem.

Usage: fslmerge <-x/y/z/t/a/tr> <output> <file1 file2 .......> [tr value in seconds]

-t : concatenate images in time

-x : concatenate images in the x direction

-y : concatenate images in the y direction

-z : concatenate images in the z direction

-a : auto-choose: single slices -> volume, volumes -> 4D (time series)

-tr : concatenate images in time and set the output image tr to the final option value

-n <N> : only use volume <N> from each input file (first volume is 0 not 1)
