AFNI Message Board

Dear AFNI users-

We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:

https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov

Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.

The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.

Sincerely, AFNI HQ

Hi, Leah-

The output of "which Xvfb" demonstrates that that program is not currently installed on that system. From the afni_system_check.py output, your system appears to be Red Hat Linux, so you can please pass along this page of install instructions to your IT folks:
[afni.nimh.nih.gov]
... in particular, the dependency list for Red Hat in this section:
[afni.nimh.nih.gov]
... which includes "Xvfb" (but they should proabbly just copy+paste that whole chunk).

But they should probably go through the R install stuff, too, it appears. Note that you will really want the R-3.6.* version to be your main one-- R-3.3.* is suuuuper old and won't have the necessary capabilities for running any of AFNI's R-dependent programs.

Also, this output of the afni_system_check.py shows that your version of AFNI is quite old-- just about coming up on its one year birthday!:
afni version : Precompiled binary linux_openmp_64: Jul 19 2019
... so you should ask your IT to run:
@update.afni.binaries -d
to update it.


... And please see the things that you can do for helping your AFNI setup (sudo password *not* required), as listed in the bottom of the afni_system_check.py output. You can copy+paste each of these into the terminal:

For: * shell bash: consider sourcing (non-login) .bashrc from (login) .bash_profile
echo "" >> ~/.bash_profile
echo "source ~/.bashrc" >> ~/.bash_profile
echo "" >> ~/.bash_profile

For: * please run: cp /usr/local/afni/19.2.04/AFNI.afnirc ~/.afnirc
cp /usr/local/afni/19.2.04/AFNI.afnirc ~/.afnirc

For: * please run: "suma -update_env" for .sumarc
suma -update_env

For: * please run: apsearch -update_all_afni_help
apsearch -update_all_afni_help
