5ttgen::mrconvert -copy_properties

Hi I’m running 5ttgen MRtrix 3.0_RC3_latest-41-gd2d21a19 and i get the following error:

5ttgen: [ERROR] Information from failed command:
5ttgen:
mrconvert: [ERROR] unknown option “-copy_properties”
5ttgen:

Additionally if I run 5ttgen without the flag -nocrop it fails, apparently because the mrgrid function is on testing/binaries/test

What should I do?

It sounds like you’re using the 5ttgen script from version 3.0.0, but it then invokes older C++ executables with version 3.0_RC3_latest. There aren’t many ways this can happen given the many safeguards we have in place to ensure the scripts use the matching executables. I expect what’s happened is that you might have updated your local installation with a git pull (which would immediately have updated the script files), but neglected to issue the subsequent ./build to also recompile the C++ executables. Would this explain it?

That makes a lot of sense. I reinstalled the binaries for mac instead of ‘git pulling’ and it works smoothly! Thank you so much
