Hi, Our IT department have recently upgraded our cluster OS and now Freesurfer complains that its license is invalid. I have tried rebuilding, and acquiring a new license, but these do not fix the problem. The license file I am using works in my Ubuntu 12.04 computer - it has been copied across as a file, not via a text editor - and used to work on an older version of the same OS.
Do you know of any solution to this issue?
I've tried everything I have seen on the mailing list, including naming it .license and license.txt, checking for whitespace, etc. Our OS is now SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP1 (x86_64).
Many thanks, Lee
Hello Lee,
Opensuse platforms versions greater than 12.1 are not compatible with the FreeSurfer licensing scheme, but their are workarounds. I will contact you offline so we can figure out the best solution for your setup.

We will be momentarily releasing a beta version of freesurfer version 6 that solves this issue. You can download and install that version which will work on your opensuse 13.2 platform.
Otherwise you will need access to an older version of the libcrypt file from opensuse 12.1 (which I dont have at the moment), see this response from another user:

So the solution for OpenSUSE 12.3 (64 bit) is to copy e.g. /lib64/libcrypt-2.14.1.so from an OpenSUSE 12.1 installation to <freesurfer_home>/lib. and then make a symbolic link to that, like "ln -s libcrypt-2.14.1.so libcrypt.so.1" (also in <freesurfer_home>/lib). Actually the LD_LIBRARY_PATH already included this directory (even two times) while I have the command "source $FREESURFER_HOME/SetUpFreeSurfer.sh" in the .profile (we are using bash shell).
Thanks for the help

Hi Zeke,
Thanks for you reply.
It's great to hear about the release of version 6. Could you give a more specific timepoint for the new release? I may prefer the new one.
And thanks for the solution for the version 5.3. If the new version may take more time, I'll try this one first. Thanks.
Best, Xiangzhen
