Re: Can't install/upgrade/remove ports (somewhat resolved)
It was happening to all ports. I can't even install fresh. But it seems that the problem I'm having with that server is much bigger than just the ports. I'm running into all kinds of joy and fun trying to get it to behave. It's panicking on compiles and spontaneously rebooting. I'm suspect of either something in the hardware or the ram, but I'm not sure which. I've already switched over to my backup server and I'm just going to take this one and throw the book at it to see what breaks and then fix it from there.

I had this exactly this problem yesterday. I don't know exactly what was wrong, but I think it was some package or dependency that had ruined something in the pkgdb. I tried rebuilding the db with pkgdb, but it really didn't help. I had to remove /var/db/pkg/flashpluginwrapper that didn't show up when I ran pkg_info. After that, no problem.

Can't install/upgrade/remove ports
Just recently ran into an issue upgrading, removing, or installing ports. For some strange reason when I compile the port, it's fine, but as soon as the make install or any installing command runs it immediately dumps out with an error similar to this: === Generating temporary packing list === Checking if www/lynx-current already installed *** Error code 1 It then dumps out and it won't go any farther.

Re: Can't install/upgrade/remove ports
did you /var/db/pkg/ entry ? I don't understand what you mean. I've looked in there, even tinkered in there a bit to try to trick the ports to install/upgrade but to no luck. Someone at work mentioned about rebuilding the pkgdb, but I'm not sure how to do that. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Can't install/upgrade/remove ports
Hi! You want upgrade installed ports ? If yes then install /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade and read man pages for portsdb, pkgdb, portversion and portupgrade. This utils check what ports version in /usr/ports (portsdb) and what ports installed in your System (pkgdb). portversion - list all ports; sign '' - what need updates. portupgrade do update work very fine. I use this utils about 2 year. Sorry for my bad english! Serge. Dragoncrest wrote: Just recently ran into an issue upgrading, removing, or installing ports.
