Resting-State analyis using the DPARSF toolbox - Error at Slice timing

Submitted by kvoigt on
 Hello,

I just started to do my first resting-state analysis using the REST toolbox. Unfortunatley, I have already an error at an early preprocessing step, namely slice timing. It does the slice time correction for the first subject, but it immediately stops when the analysis for the second subject should actually start. I am using a Mac OS X (Version 10.8.2), Matlab 2012b, SPM8, REST (Version 1.8). 
What might be the problem?

The following error message occurs:

Warning: Run spm_jobman('initcfg'); beforehand
