Hi Katherine - I believe that it's because you define bvecfile and bvalfile as lists of 2 file names each. Both bvecfile and bvalfile accept a single file name. In bveclist you can enter as many gradient tables as input volumes.

Best, a.y

  Hi Katherine - I don't see this error in the log file, but the
  last
  command that it ran before it stopped was this:

  mri_probedicom --i

/media/Data/Temple/Temple_Tracula/31313422_2998/dti_dicom/31313422_2998.MR. Temple.9.1.20140521.105357.1f9ykdm.dcm > /media/Data/Temple/Temple_Tracula/31313422_2998/dmri/dcminfo.dat

  Does this .dat file exist? If so the error probably happened
  after this
  command. Can you send the exact error message that you see on
  your
  terminal?

  Thanks!
