Hi,

I have an openSUSE 12.2 (x86_64) and my freesurfer version is
freesurfer-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-stable5-20130513.

-------- freesurfer-Linux-centos6_x86_64-stable-pub-v5.3.0 --------
Setting up environment for FreeSurfer/FS-FAST (and FSL)
FREESURFER_HOME   /usr/local/freesurfer
FSFAST_HOME       /usr/local/freesurfer/fsfast
FSF_OUTPUT_FORMAT nii.gz

MNI_DIR           /usr/local/freesurfer/mni
FSL_DIR           /home/Mahshid/fsl


When I run freeview, it works correctly, but when I try to run
tkmedit and mris_make_face_parcellation it gives following error:


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR: Invalid FreeSurfer license key found in license file
/usr/local/freesurfer/.license
  If you are outside the NMR-Martinos Center,
  go to http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu to
  get a valid license file (it's free).
  If you are inside the NMR-Martinos Center,
  make sure to source the standard environment.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I updated the .license recently and tried some suggestion
previously uploaded on mailing list, but none worked. Would you
please let me know how to solve it?

my .license is:

mhshid@gmail.com <mailto:mhshid@gmail.com>

*CJUIGOoAoZws

Thanks,
Mahshid

I tested the license file you sent out to the list and it worked for me. But in the future please refrain from sending the contents of the license file in a public forum like this.

I suppose its possible your file was currupted in some way so Im going to resend you the license file offline and please save that attachment to your FREESURFER_HOME directory.
