Hi there,
I'm running fsl-vbm on a sample of 90 subjects. An error pops up during fslvbm_3_proc. Namely:
***
fslvbm3a.e19109
Part of FSL (build 418)
fnirt

--intin name of file/files containing initial intensity maping
--cout name of output file with field coefficients
--iout name of output image
--fout name of output file with field
--jout name of file for writing out the Jacobian of the field (for diagnostic or VBM purposes)
--refout name of file for writing out intensity modulated --ref (for diagnostic purposes)
--intout name of files for writing information pertaining to intensity mapping
--logout Name of log-file
--config Name of config file specifying command line arguments
--refmask name of file with mask in reference space
--inmask name of file with mask in input image space
--applyrefmask Use specified refmask if set, deafult 1 (true)

--ssqlambda If set (=1), lambda is weighted by current ssq, default 1
--jacrange Allowed range of Jacobian determinants, default 0.01,100.0
--refderiv If =1, ref image is used to calculate derivatives. Default =0

Though n_004-CK_struc_GM_to_template_GM_warp exists, it's empty. The same error message shows up for each subject. It seems as though the problem stems from the registration step of fslvbm_3_proc. I'm not certain how to go about solving this problem.
I would sincerely appreciate guidance on this issue!
