Download sample data not working

Support

Hi all,
I tried to download some sample data by using the dedicated extension but it keeps downloading and no data is loaded.

Could you please let us know which Slicer version you are using and which operating system?

Stable version (5.10.0) on Linux.

I get these messages in the python console

[VTK] vtkMRMLModelStorageNode::ReadDataInternal: Failed to load model: unrecognized file extension ‘.gipl.gz’ of file ‘/home/p4ol0/.cache/slicer.org/Slicer/SlicerIO/PreDentalSurgery.gipl.gz’.

[VTK] vtkMRMLStorageNode::ReadData: Failed to read node (null) ((null)) from filename=‘/home/p4ol0/.cache/slicer.org/Slicer/SlicerIO/PreDentalSurgery.gipl.gz’

[VTK] Couldn’t read file, returning null fiberBundle node: /home/p4ol0/.cache/slicer.org/Slicer/SlicerIO/PreDentalSurgery.gipl.gz

[Python] Load failed!

[Python] Load failed (attempt 1 of 3)…

I think the same happens for the preview.

Is this your custom build or the installer? I can’t replicate this is on Linux using standard package from download.slicer.org.

If you are custom building, did you any chance turn off gipl support off in ITK?

I’m using the build available on the website.

I’m on Arch Linux

Can tou load other data sets that are not in gipl.gz file format?

Have you installed any extensions or Python packages? (maybe your ITK IO classes have been overwritten)
