Hello, Val and Francois. We apologize for the ongoing installation bugs in CENA. We have gone through a few different iterations of our development team since the initial release, and we're planning to bring in a dedicated developer on the project soon who is best suited to properly fixing issues in the code, tracking changes, versioning, and providing consistent updates. As I am not a software developer myself, I'm afraid I'm limited in my own expertise on all of this, but I'll try to help as best as I can in the meantime.
As far as these failed installs, I have been addressing this by sharing the source tarfile that was failing to download properly from the buggy CENA install function.
Please contact me directly to request the tarfile, as CENA is distributed by request.

Here are the instructions that should work for manual install:
-
Unpack the tarfile that contains the processes for CENA. You should be able to use a utility like WinZip on Windows; the Mac finder should unpack it directly, or you can use tar -xf [tarfile] from the command line.
-
The contents of the tarfile should be placed in the brainstorm process directory appropriate to your OS:
(on Mac) /Users/[your username]/.brainstorm/process
(on Windows) C:\Users[your username].brainstorm\process
(on Linux) /home/[your username]/.brainstorm/process
nb: .brainstorm is likely to be a hidden directory on your system, so you may have to "show hidden" or navigate through a utility where you can enter the path directly.
- Restart Matlab and Brainstorm, and the CENA processes should appear in the process selection menu of the pipeline editor.
Please note that I personally have not debugged this process on Windows, but I have implemented it on Linux and Mac platforms. I cannot guarantee it will work with the Matlab Runtime Compiler in lieu of a full version of Matlab.
