fmriqa: error generating .pbm and .png files
dear dr. gadde,

after running fmriqa_generate.pl (under linux), most of the image files are missing from the index.html output file, because .png files were apparently not created correctly.

this is the corresponding error message (for one exemplary plot):

set terminal pbm small color
             ^
"/projects/.../RS2/tmpplotcmds15295", line 1: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list

convert: unable to open image `/projects/.../RS2/qa_volmeans_allnorm.png.pbm': Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden[file or directory not found] @ error/blob.c/OpenBlob/2614.
convert: missing an image filename `/projects/.../RS2/qa_volmeans_allnorm.png' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3016.


do you have any advice on how to resolve this issue? any help would be much appreciated!

thanks,

Lena,

I believe your site is compiling these tools. One of the dependencies
is gnuplot, and apparently your gnuplot does not support the 'pbm'
output type. One way to verify is to run gnuplot and type "set
terminal" (without the quotes) and post the output. Thanks,
