<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I just recently wanted to allow for ECAT7-outputs on the installed GATE-version I am using (v7). For this, I downloaded the ECAT7-package and installed/compiled everything according to the installation guide, that is:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>- I created an ECAT-directory</p>
<p>- Inside the directory I've mounted the ecat7-package</p>
<p>- I've created an 'ecat/include' directory for the 'matrix.h' and 'machine_indep.h'</p>
<p>- I similarly created an 'ecat/lib/Linux-g++' directory for my 'libecat.a' file.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>After this, I recompiled both Geant4 (maybe not necessary) and GATE, however now with the 'GATE_USE_ECAT7' flag set to 'ON'. I've also specified the home directory of the ecat7-package ('ECAT7_HOME' set to '/my/path/to/ecat')</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I succesfully can compile GATE (and I do set the 'export ECAT7_HOME = /my/path/to/ecat' inside my .bashrc-file). </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>However, when I try to run the PET benchmark example to try the output (benchPET.mac) it seems like the ECAT7 library cannot be found with the batch being interrupted and en error reading:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p> ***** COMMAND NOT FOUND </gate/output/sinogram/enable> *****</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Removing the sinogram gives the same kind of error but for the ecat7 command:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>***** COMMAND NOT FOUND </gate/output/ecat7/enable> *****<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I've seen people with similar issues in the mailing list history, but I cannot seem to get a good answer on how to proceed to fix this. Does anyone know what I can do to be able to enable the ECAT7 output?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks for your help,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>/David<br>
