Hi Dinesh, I have met the same problem before. The problem is a small piece of code to check environment variables which has not yet been patched. To make things work all you need to do is the following: type export POSSUMDIR=$FSLDIR in your terminal to start with, and then run POSSUM from this terminal afterwards. This should make sure it has the right settings to run without error.
