Hej. I recently tried to create a license file for a Unix-based installation of FreeSurfer that previously had no license file associated with it. With the help of our IT people, I have tried copying the lines I received via email into a file named ‘license.txt’ and then following responses I found on the message board to similar problems, into a file named ‘.license’. In both cases, I get the same error:
ERROR: Invalid FreeSurfer license key found in license file /usr/local/freesurfer/license.txt or ERROR: Invalid FreeSurfer license key found in license file /usr/local/freesurfer/.license I have since tried performing a completely new installation of freesurfer, recreating the .license file using a text editor (per a previous message found about this error on the message boards). I am still receiving the same invalid FreeSurfer license error message. To the best that I can figure out, there do not appear to be any sort of ‘end of line’ characters in any of the iterations of our attempts to create this license file. I have noticed many messages about this error in the archives, but none of the suggested fixes seem to be working for me. Any help at this point would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance, suzanne _______________________________________________ Freesurfer mailing list Freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/freesurfer The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed.
