Hello Mucken, 1) You should be able to download this archive by linking to http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/public_archive_index.html <http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/public_archive_index.html>, requesting and waiting for a password (see appended email), then selecting the archive of interest:
6595030 download <http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/public/6595030_CARET_TUTORIAL_SEPT06.zip> info <http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/public/ROOT/public/Tutorial/CARET_TUTORIAL_SEPT-06CARET_TUTORIAL_SEPT06.zip/6595030_info.html> /ROOT/public/Tutorial/CARET_TUTORIAL_SEPT-06/CARET_TUTORIAL_SEPT06.zip 2) If your analysis needs specifically warrant using Caret software, keep going in your current direction. However, my lab (and a growing fraction of the ‘surface-based’ neuroimaging community) has switched to Connectome Workbench software. It has most of the nice features of Caret but is much more powerful and user-friendly. We are continuing to actively develop ‘Workbench’, whereas Caret is static. Please check out http://www.humanconnectome.org/software/connectome-workbench.html <http://www.humanconnectome.org/software/connectome-workbench.html> and the associated software and tutorials.

The database was housed on an old server with a very old operating system. It got corrupted/infected in a way that our IT experts determined was incompatible with keeping it robustly online or re-installing the database on a new host. 2) Before the untimely demise of SumsDB, Donna Dierker and Ben West were able to transfer the database contents to a different server and to provide a rudimentary form of access for the public datasets and some of the private datasets" If you link to http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/ <http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/> you’ll have options to view a listing of all public archives that had been in SumsDB: http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/public_archive_index.html <http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/public_archive_index.html> and to a longer list that includes many private archives as well: http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/archive_index.html <http://brainvis.wustl.edu/sumsdb/archive_index.html> 3) If you wish to access any of these datasets, You may obtain the login password by emailing s...@brainvis.wustl.edu <mailto:s...@brainvis.wustl.edu>. This requires a manual response on our side, so please be patient while awaiting login info. 4) The info buttons provide some information about the files contained within each archive, but be forewarned that the formatting is not pretty! It may also be slow to load. The download buttons should work once you’re logged in. Sorry that this is such a kludge, but hopefully you and others will find that it’s better than nothing. And it’s the best we’ll be able to do for legacy datasets in SumsDB. 5) Our lab remains strongly committed to sharing of extensively analyzed neuroimaging datasets. However, we are investing our efforts in a more forward-looking direction via the BALSA database (https://balsa.wustl.edu <https://balsa.wustl.edu/>). In a nutshell, BALSA is to SumsDB what Connectome Workbench is to Caret visualization software. It has many nice features, and we hope that you and other investigators will switch from Caret to ‘Workbench’ and share your published results on BALSA (see https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27074495 <https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27074495> for an article on BALSA).
