Make sure that: (1) you don't have old files in the directory you are trying to write the file to (e.g. remove old files related to the SPM.mat file - ResMS, mask, beta*, etc.); and (2) that you have data at each timepoint or in each subject.

Hello,
I use SP8 to analyse my data, At firts level statistical analysis, I have created the SPM.mat files and when I try to estimate them, it stops after a few seconds and gives me a message that reads : No inmask voxels: empty analysis and a more detailed message appears on Matlab:
Initialising parameters
: ...done
Plane 46/46 , block 1/1
: ...done
Failed 'Model estimation'
Reference to non-existent field 'Vbeta'.
In file "C:\Users\LA\Documents\spm8\spm8\config\spm_run_fmri_est.m" (v3691), function "spm_run_fmri_est" at line 100.
The following modules did not run:
Failed: Model estimation
Could you please tell me what it means and how to correct that?
Your help is very much appreciated,
Ladan
