[Mne_analysis] mne_process_raw/averaging

[Sarah Steinvorth]

Hi,

I get an error message when I try to average with mne_process_raw, 
saying "No active object to assign the name to".

When I name before outfile in the description/ave file I get the message
"misplaced outfile". Including the path to the outfile into the 
description file did not help. I do not get a log file.

The command was run on theta (using ave_encode.csh). I attached an 
example description file

Any help with this is greatly appreciated,
thanks, Sarah


P.S. Here is the full message when running ave_encode.csh

theta:ssteinv[9] ave_encode.csh
