Error in "native" EPI space processing (--output-spaces func)

Hello stars,

I’ve been trying to run fmriprep in the “native” EPI space. My understanding is that since version 1.4 this is available (# fMRIPrep: preprocessed data in native BOLD space) using the “–output-spaces func” argument.

I updated my docker version from 1.3 to 1.4 and tried:

fmriprep-docker $Fmri_preproc_in_folder $Fmri_preproc_out_folder participant --participant-label $Subj --fs-license-file $Fs_lic_file -vvv -w $work_dir --nthreads 2 --omp-nthreads 4 --mem-mb 14000 --low-mem --output-spaces func

However theres an error I can’t work out. I do not see anything of help in the workdir either.

The output from fmriprep is:

fmriprep-docker /Volumes/nfs/drorcohen/data/fmripreproc_test_bidsdata/ /Volumes/nfs/drorcohen/data/fmripreproc_test_output/ participant --participant-label sub-002 --fs-license-file /Volumes/nfs/drorcohen/data/fmripreproc_scripts/license.txt -vvv -w /Users/drorcohen/Documents/fmriprep_work_dir/ --nthreads 2 --omp-nthreads 4 --mem-mb 14000 --low-mem --output-spaces func

Although --fs-no-reconall was not set (i.e., FreeSurfer is to be run), no FreeSurfer output space (valid values are: fsaverage5, fsaverage, fsaverage6, fsnative) was selected. Adding default “fsaverage5” to the list of output spaces.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

I have managed a workaround.

The issue is solved by adding MNI152NLin2009cAsym as one of the output spaces. Seems closely related to this https://github.com/poldracklab/fmriprep/issues/1675, which is on the 1.4.2 milestone https://github.com/poldracklab/fmriprep/milestone/28, so this may get fixed in the next version

That is correct, alternatively you could use the pre-release 1.5.0rc1, although as a release candidate it can be not stable enough.
