I have installed mipav 10.0 windows-64 but I'm having trouble installing JIST and CBS-tools.

I downloaded CBSTools-bundle-3.0.8-160229.zip which unzips into 3 files:

CBSTools-release-3.0.8-160229.jar
external-scripts.jar
JIST-CRUISE-2014Dec12-03-37PM.jar

I opened mipav and went to the install plugins window. When I select the JIST-CRUISE jar file and click install, after a couple of minutes I get numerous error messages saying "unable to load plugin XXXX"

Not sure what I'm doing wrong...

Hi there,

the installation has not been tested with the most recent versions of MIPAV, you might have better luck with MIPAV 8.1. Note also that the CBSTools toolbox has been integrated into the python toolbox Nighres, which is much simpler to install and interface with other software.

Hello,

I also had this same plugin installation problem with MIPAV 11 and tried to install MIPAV 8.1 instead, but it is not compatible with my current Mac OS (Monterey).

Are these plugins compatible with any other recent MIPAV versions? If not, do you know what the most recent Mac OS is compatible with MIPAV 8.1? Alternatively, would you recommend using Nighres if we cannot get MIPAV to work?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I have managed to install CBSTools over MIPAV 11 on linux, but there might be different issues on Mac. As mentioned earlier, CBSTools is no longer actively developed as a MIPAV plugin, due in large part to these installation problems. Nighres should be easier to work with, and includes almost all of the CBSTools functions (and many new ones). It is worth switching over (and you can interface easily with python toolboxes too). MIPAV remains an excellent data viewer and processing tool, but keeping up with both systems is a bit too much for us.

I got same error " Unable to load plugin"

See above: I recommend you to switch to the Nighres python package, which includes most of the CBSTools software and more. We no longer maintain compatibility with JIST and MIPAV.
