[MINC-users] nii2mnc problems.

[Giovanna Pellecchia]

Howdy all,

if I try to use nii2mnc I get this interesting error message:

nii2mnc test_image_00001.hdr
** ERROR: nifti_convert_nhdr2nim: bad dim[0]
** ERROR (nifti_image_read): cannot create nifti image from header 'test_image_00001.hdr'
Segmentation fault

The same test image works fine on another computer:
nii2mnc test_image_00001.hdr
orient = 0

My current version:
nii2mnc -v
program: 2.0.15
libminc: 2.0.15
netcdf : "3.6.2" of May 10 2008 09:14:53 $
HDF5   : 1.6.6
(installed using mincbundle on a recent Ubuntu Intrepid install with all the recommended upgrades).
(I also have an unusual situation, as it turns out that most of the binaries are located in /bin and the libraries in /usr/lib by default - no idea why!)

Hope somebody can point to a solution... 
Thanks!
Giovanna.
