Hi Jürgen I have tried all versions of file naming; .license, .license.txt, license.txt...you name it, and I keep getting the same error
"ERROR: Invalid FreeSurfer license key found in license file /usr/local/freesurfer/license.txt" Finally I worked out that I was creating the license file in a document editor, not a text editor. I have just re-done the license file using a text editor and it works fine. I thought I would list this rather obvious solution, in case there is another newbie out there who is struggling. Thanks for your help Regards KP From: freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu [mailto:freesurfer-boun...@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu] On Behalf Of Jürgen Hänggi Sent: Monday, 2 June 2014 3:27 PM To: Freesurfer Mailinglist Subject: Re: [Freesurfer] invalid license key error Hi Kristen The license file have to be a system file (starting with a period) without any ending, i.e. .license Cheers Jürgen On [DATE], "Kristen Pammer" <[ADDRESS]> wrote: Hello, I have just downloaded and installed both CentOS and FreeSurfer. I am trying to run the installation tests, and a number of them do not work (e.g., tkmedit bert orig.mgz, recon etc). the error I get is as follows: ERROR: Invalid FreeSurfer license key found in license file /usr/local/freesurfer/license.txt If you are outside the NMR-Martinos Center, go to http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu to get a valid license file (it's free). If you are inside the NMR-Martinos Center, make sure to source the standard environment I only recieved the license key a few days ago and copy/pasted the 3 lines exactly as sent to me. I found a thread from about a year ago, I tried to follow it through, but it didn't work. I also cannot find any other threads reporting a similar problem that follow through to a solution. Any help you could provide would be great Thanks KP ________________________________ _______________________________________________ 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.
