Why are you creating the directories manually with mkdir/chmod? They should get created automatically.
Also, I have to ask, you rebooted after you did image-update to 148? ... and then are creating the zone? You can also try doing: pkg -R /export/webserver-zone image-update -nv To see if it'll show you any more details.
