Hi Yoonho

That warning is usually benign. Does the recon finish ok?

Hello FreeSurfer Developers,

I'm attempting to compute cortical thickness and to analyze it between groups.
So I perform "recon-all", but rather than using recon-all -all, some problems 
arise while performing each of the steps in it. These problems are as follwing.

sample-001.mgz and sample-002.mgz in /usr/local/freesurfer/subjects/ are used. 
What is this problem happening?

2013-08-14 Thread Bruce Fischl

Hi Eli

I don't think that's an error, just an arcane warning that some open 
source numerical minimization code complains about sometimes. Looking at 
the log it seems like it completed ok, although this is the version of 5.3 
without the segstats/ribbon patch, which you will probably want to download 
(can someone point Eli at this?)


cheers
Bruce

Re: [Freesurfer] MCSRCH ERROR

2011-10-20 Thread Bruce Fischl
I just took a look at it, and I think it's still running. How long has it 
been? There looks like there is a very large topological defect, that will 
take a long time to correct. The correction has complexity that is 
quadratic in the convex hull of the largest defect, so large ones can take 
a *long* time. Usually when there is one this big though it means something 
failed. Check the rh.inflated.nofix and rh.orig.nofix files to see if there 
is a connection to the skull or something else. If you have trouble fixing 
this, upload the subject and we'll take a look.

[Freesurfer] MCSRCH ERROR

2011-10-18 Thread Kenichiro Tanaka
Hello All,

While processing a brain image data(.mgz) through ver5.0.0, I got the
following errors.
I have no idea how to resolve them.
I need outputs in stats directory, there are only lh.aparc.a2009s.stats,
lh.aparc.stats, and lh.curv.stats.
What caused them?
How should I resolve them?

Are you sure they are errors? We see this mysterious message sometimes, 
but I don't think it is really an error, and usually things are fine

[Freesurfer] Mcsrch error during recon-all

Hi,

Each time I have run recon-all on our subjects, I end up with the same slew of 
error messages underneath Computing MAP estimate using [x number of] samples 
and underneath EM alignment process:

IFLAG= -1  LINE SEARCH FAILED. SEE DOCUMENTATION OF ROUTINE MCSRCH ERROR 
RETURN OF LINE SEARCH: INFO= 3 POSSIBLE CAUSES: FUNCTION OR GRADIENT ARE 
INCORRECT OR INCORRECT TOLERANCES

At the very end of the log file I see:

recon-all -s 5 exited with ERRORS at Tue Sep 27 03:23:46 EDT 2011

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

the IFLAG messages can be ignored if mri_em_register is not exiting with
error.  which command is running that is exiting with error?  can you
send that command line from the recon-all.log file?

Re: [Freesurfer] Mcsrch error during recon-all

2011-09-28 Thread Nick Schmansky
the log does not indicate that mri_em_register exited with an error.  it
appears that it produced its output correctly and continued through to
nearly the end of the stream.  the IFLAG messages can be ignored.

the log indicates that mri_label2label is exiting with an error when
trying to load the label from the fsaverage directory.  the fsaverage
subject is symlinked to the users SUBJECTS_DIR (to save space), but
sometimes this seems to cause problems on some systems.  i would try
copying it to your subjects dir:

cd $SUBJECTS_DIR
rm fsaverage
cp -r $FREESURFER_HOME/subjects/fsaverage .

then you just need to run the last two stages of recon-all:

recon-all -s subjid -balabels -label-exvivo-ec

or if you dont care about the Brodmann or exvivo EC labels, you dont
need to run anything.

 The first set of errors (of the kind I described) follows the command

[Freesurfer] MCSRCH ERROR

2011-08-08 Thread Irwin, William
Hi-

I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to address and/or fix these errors.

The native input images are very good quality; the conversion to T1.mgz is 
fine; the brainmask.mgz is good, a bit of dura remained at the 
parietal/occipital region (very common); otherwise, the skull stripping is very 
clean.

The recon-all finished but with errors as expected. Processing continued to 
the end, but there is no output except in /mri and /touch.

Doing: #@# Skull Stripping

Hi Jenifer

we see that sometimes too, and it's never clear why. It's from an open 
source minimization function and doesn't usually mean anything bad. Check 
the talairach_with_skull.lta visually and see if it is ok
cheers
