Fmriprep license file issue

Hi all

I got the following error when i tried to run fmriprep:

The error is only happening for the subjects with more than one timepoint.
It seems the license file is not up to date. However, i downloaded a new file just recently and so it should be up to date.

The following command line was used to run fmriprep:

sudo docker run -v /home/ubuntu/projects/AN_project/INHIB:/data -v /home/ubuntu/projects/AN_project/INHIB:/scratch -v /home/ubuntu/projects/AN_project/license.txt -w /scratch poldracklab/fmriprep:latest /data /scratch/out_fmriprep_071217 participant -w /scratch/work --no-freesurfer --use-aroma --longitudinal --fs-license-file /home/ubuntu/projects/AN_project/license.txt

Any ideas what’s wrong?

Thank you.

quick guess, but I think with:
--fs-license-file /home/ubuntu/projects/AN_project/license.txt
The pathname has to be recognizable by the docker container, like with what you did with
-v /home/ubuntu/projects/AN_project/INHIB:/data
and specified the fmriprep input directory just by saying /data.

So if you would do something like
-v /home/ubuntu/projects/AN_project:/data instead of -v /home/ubuntu/projects/AN_project/INHIB:/data

and the input directory for the fmriprep command would look like:
/data/INHIB instead of /data
and the license file optionwould look like: --fs-license-file /data/license.txt instead of --fs-license-file /home/ubuntu/projects/AN_project/license.txt

Hi

Thank you for the comment and link. It seems to work fine now. Thank you.

@silvano, can you provide the command that worked? I’m getting an almost identical issue as yours (ie brand new FS license but still being asked to get an up to date one due to GNU glibc) and have not had any success the last week or so. Thanks!

edit: Oh geez, I didn’t realize this was from last January, not this January!
