Hello Ashesh, You need someone with admin or root privileges to install tcsh (and I would do csh as well) shells on your machine so those scripts can run, i.e.
$ sudo apt-get install tcsh $ sudo apt-get install csh On Oct 25, 2018, at 13:35, Thaker, Ashesh A <ashesh.tha...@ucdenver.edu<mailto:ashesh.tha...@ucdenver.edu>> wrote: External Email - Use Caution Dear Freesurfer team, Surely there is a simple fix to my problem, but I've been unable to succesfully run Freesurfer commands after many attempts (with my very basic bash knowledge) and searching prior archives. I'm running Freesurfer on a 64-bit machine, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. No Freesurfer commands work (files not found), except the "freesurfer" command. I've included some pertinent output below. All of the installation files seem to be in the right place and the path seems to be correct, so I'm perplexed. Any help very much appreciated.
