antsRegistration segmentation fault

[josephmje]

Hi @gdevenyi ,

I'm getting an error when trying to run the first stage of MAGeT.

This is my singularity call:
singularity run -H ${tmp_dir} -B ${bids_dir}:/bids -B ${output_dir}:/out ${sing_container} /bids /out participant1 --participant_label ${SUB} --segmentation_type colin27-subcortical --n_cpus 4 --label-masking

And the output:

Hi,

Can you please confirm which version you're running.

In addition, the resources available on the system you're trying this on?

[josephmje]

Thanks @gdevenyi . I'm running v0.3.1 on a CentOS computing cluster.

Actually if I change my singularity call to:
singularity run -H ${tmp_dir} -B ${bids_dir}:/bids -B ${output_dir}:/out ${sing_container} /bids /out participant1 --participant_label ${SUB}, the first stage seems to be working.
I'm not sure if its because I left out the --n_cpus or --label-masking options.

[gdevenyi]

Hrm, well its a bit hard to tell since ANTs tools don't usually give a very useful output.

My guess is maybe antsRegistration running out of resources, how big is the machine you're running on, and since this is a cluster, are your resources limited?

[gdevenyi]

I see I don't have a "verbose" option here, I'll open an issue to all one to run.py.
