Hi, I hope you had a good time! > I used portmaster to perform the upgrade. Is that why it failed? I wouldn't know. I don't use portmaster myself. Have you tried to get in touch with portmaster's maintainer and see whether he has any clues? > Since the port failed to update, I had to start over from scratch. > Before doing a 'make install clean', I removed the symlink and the > install failed.

I certainly did not create these symlinks. I assume since you > are the port maintainer for this openfire port that you would test > updates. I certainly do, although by no means I can test all official, pseudo-official, and non-official update methods out there. I have a live openfire environment (logs, config) which I test upon upgrade. Make deinstall/install or reinstall indeed works fine here. I have absolutely no idea who created that symlink, but I would assume it's not the port itself. > Let me know if you need additional documentation of the update > process. I would think both me and portmaster's maintainer would benefit from a full portmaster log including the commands you type. -- Pietro Cerutti The FreeBSD Project g...@freebsd.org
