External Email - Use Caution
Hello Ellen,
I suspect that you really do not have the system privileges to read/write every
subject directory. I have run into this with other commands that scan
multiple subject directories.
Assuming there is one top level directory that contains all the subject
directories, and it’s OK for you to try and set/change permissions on those
files, then in terminal window you could “cd” to that parent directory,
$ cd <path to top of tree containing all subject subdirectories>
- and then try running the following command,
$ find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; -print
That will try and change the permissions of every subdirectory there such that
you can read and write to it. But if you don’t have permission to access
some of those directories, then you will get an error.. You may have to
find someone wit, e.g., admin/root. privileges to change the permissions on the
subdirectories the chmod command fails on.

Dear experts,I created a loop for
mri_surf2surf so that it would run for 300+ subjects. For most of them, it
ran successfully. However, it did not work for 30 subjects. I then went to
investigate one by one and I am getting a Permission denied error for some
reason. I confirm that recon-all has been performed and also that I have
read/write/execute permissions. See below for the log. Any ideas why this
could be happening to specific
subjects?
