RE: Failure to Normalize
Hi Michael,

Thank you for reporting this, I believe this was actually a bug in the code which was preventing you from running the "structural normalization" option in Preprocessing. I am attaching a temporal patch (for version 14n, simply copy the attached file into the CONN distribution folder, overwriting the file with the same name there). Let me know if everything is working as expected now and I will add this patch to the next release as well.

Best
Alfonso

Hi 

I'm having trouble with the functional normalization step. I'm implementing the preprocessing pipeline for volume based analysis (MNI) but the last image generated in the "auSubject1.nii"

I assume that this means my image has been realigned & warped and slice timed. But since it stops at normalization, the following steps do not occur. I've included the error is below. You'll see a smoothing error as well but that is, I guess, only present since I was also trying to run smoothing after functional normalization. I am using the newest version of Conn 14.n

Best,
Michael
