Dear Anastasia,

Thank you for all your assistance.

The problem was the conversion of the gradient table to /dmri/bvecs.norot and /dmri/bvecs. The original table was using the period as the decimal point. However, the environment variable LC_NUMERIC was equal to "pt_BR.UTF-8" (that define how the system format the numbers, for example, the decimal separator, (in Brazil we use a comma (,))) the TRACULA was not able to convert it correctly.

I used the following command to solve this.

$ echo 'export LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"' >>~/.bashrc $ source ~/.bashrc

Best wishes, Walter

Hi Walter – I’d check on the structural segmentation and its registration to the DWIs. Open dmri/dtifit_FA.nii.gz and label/diff/aparc+aseg.bbr.nii.gz and check if they’re well aligned and if the segmentation looks fine.

On a separate note (and I don’t know if it’s related to the error you’re asking about), TRACULA is expecting the numbers in the gradient tables to have decimal points and yours seem to have commas (see the “printf:” warnings near the beginning of the preprocessing step).

Best,

a.y

Hello FreeSurfer Developers,

I am attempting to compute the tracula preprocessing directive (-prep), but for all my subjects I get the following error when it computes the pathway priors from atlas to T1.

I have searched the list and no similar errors with reply have been reported. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to trouble-shoot this one? Also, Ive attached the trac-all.log and trac-all.error in case it's of any use.
