CONN 18b frozen when setting the preprocesing steps
Dear Conn Users,
I used CONN version 17a, then 17f as SPM12 toolboxes running under Matlab R2017b on a Linux machine.
Everything was running properly for a while but recently, everything I process in 17f as ROI-to-ROI is frozen in a stage of explorer results. Initially, I thought that's a memory issue because I had 700 participants.
Recently I looked at a small group of 28 participants and the same issue appears again. After I select a couple of options in the explorer results, CONN becomes frozen (especially after I manually defined a set of ROI and selected them). It's not possible anymore to see the 3D representation or to analyse the table as before.
Then I decided to do everything in CONN 18b as SPM12(7487) toolboxes running under Matlab R2017b on a Linux. But unfortunately, the software is frozen even earlier, when I have to enter the smoothing kernel in the preprocesing steps.
I need to mention that I have all three versions of CONN (conn17a, 17f and 18b) saved in the "toolbox" of SPM12.
Please find below the error description:
"ERROR DESCRIPTION:

Do you have any suggestions? I would be happy to see 18b working.
Thank you very much in advance.

RE: CONN 18b frozen when setting the preprocesing steps
Dear Larra,
Could please clarify what you mean by frozen? (the window is unresponsive? it throws error messages when you attempt to interact with it? can you ctrl-C and do you see any error messages when you do?)
The error message that you attach is quite strange, in my impression it is perhaps due to either the CONN figure having been deleted (e.g. issuing a "close force all" command in Matlab), or perhaps the Matlab workspace having been cleared (e.g. issuing a "clear all" command in Matlab). After you launch CONN, is there any other Matlab program that you are launching/running that perhaps may be interacting with CONN in unexpected ways?
Any additional information may be helpful here. Thanks
Alfonso

RE: CONN 18b frozen when setting the preprocesing steps
Dear Alfonso,
Thank you for your reply.
The window is unresponsive. Indeed the error message appears after I force close CONN window. Before even Matlab was unresponsive (and does not react to ctrl C).
I do not run any other MATLAB code in the meantime.
I thought might be that the computer taking a long time, but I left it for hours but nothing changes. I also use two screens, but I used them before when 17f was working for everything.
I have tried to use it on a different computer, in Windows 10, Matlab 2018a and only Conn 2018b and it runs. However that computer is old and slow and I need the Linux workstation for the hundreds of participants I am analysing.
Do you think that it is worth keeping just one version of Conn (17f or 18b). I have a lot of data already processed with Conn 17f.
Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards,
Larra
