External Email - Use Caution
Hello An, My understanding is that in Freesurfer 5 you need to have a file called “.license” and it should be placed in the directory where you installed freesurfer. That directory is also the path the variable $FREESURFER_HOME points to. So if there was no “.license” file there to begin with, then this command would have reported there was no such file, $ ls $FRESSURFER_HOME/.license Newer versions of Freesurfer look for “license.txt”. Did you rename the newly generated “license.txt” file and copy it to live under $FREESURFER_HOME to be “.license” ?, e.g., from wherever “license.txt” maybe you did something like, $ cp license.txt $FREESURFER_HOME/.license I was going to suggest you try doing that copy to create what freesurfer 5 is looking for, but from your output below, it looks like you already did that and it is finding $FREESURFER_HOME/.license but saying the key is incorrect to run version 5. I don’t know how to change/re-generate a key to work with version 5, but we can look into it. - R.

But the software showed ERROR “Invalid FreeSurfer license key found in license file”. We tried to apply license online, however, the license provided online is now for 6.0.0 version and it seems not applicable for 5.1.0 since I still got the same error message as before.May I ask how to get the licnese of 5.1.0?The tricky part is the format of lecense now I get from Fresssurfer is different from the old one in Freesurfer 5.1.New License I get(call license.txt):xxxxxxxx@gmail.com43508 *CRBDdLNbgmws FSOkaDD5AxOQkOld License(call .license):xxxxxxxx@gmail.com39689*1PS: I tried to use `dos2unix` to transfer the license to unix format, but it seems no help.
