Can't install apache or other ports

A

Hi everyone,

Yes I'm very new and I'm one of those guys who usually accomplish their stuff buy following Step-by-step Guides.
I'm using a Jail (9.2.0 release) within a FreeNAS System. I had a perfectly working Jail with Apache, MySQL and PHP running. I set it up around this time last year and had no problems whatsoever installing it. Owncloud and Wordpress were working smoothly
Last week I wanted to test a few new websites. Unfortunately I forgot (and didn't save) my passwords. No problem I thought - just set up a new AMP-Server. Learning something and all...
Code: 
portsnap fetch
portsnap extract
portsnap fetch update
cd /usr/ports/www/apache24
make install clean
I get this error msg:
Code: 
===>  apache24-2.4.10_2 pkg(8) must be version 1.3.8 or greater, but you have 1.
1.3. You must upgrade the ports-mgmt/pkg port first. 
*** [install] Error code 1
Updating the ports-mgmt/pkg port with (following the instructions):
Code: 
make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg build deinstall install clean
I get this:
Code: 
pkg-static: Cannot parse configuration file! 
*** [check-already-installed] Error code 70 
 
Stop in /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg. 
*** [/usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg/work/.install_done.pkg._usr_local] Error code 1
I've tried a lot of other things, following various instructions from the doc pages, forums etc. and created about 30 jails.
I've been trying this for two entire days now, and I'm really stuck. And, quite frankly, it drives me crazy, because I can remember having absolutely no problems with it in the past.
Really hope somebody can help me. ;)
Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I know I can install Apache24 as a package, but I will have the same problem as above when installing mysql56-server

Could you please point me to these instructions? I’ve never seen something like that.

Try: pkg delete -f pkg or make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg deinstall, then portsnap fetch update and make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg install clean.
 
Tank you very much. make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg deinstall didn't work, i I got "does not exist - skipping" error, pkg delete -f pkg oddly did work.

After running make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg install clean, I get the following error msgmessage:
Code: 
====> Compressing man pages (compress-man)

pkg-static: PACKAGESITE in pkg.conf is no longer supported.  Convert to the new

*** [/usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg/work/.install_done.pkg._usr_local] Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg.

EDIT: Interestingly, when I run portsnap fetch update after removing the old package manager, i I get this:

Code:

EDIT2: Sorry, I seem to have mixed something up, make -C /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg build deinstall install clean was a command line I got from some forum (thread from someone who had similar problems).
 
I was now able to install the latest package manager after removing the relevant two lines from pkg.conf.
Following pkg(7), I added:
Code: 
PACKAGESITE: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest",
 
You should not have PACKAGESITE in /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf defined any more. Also keep in mind that FreeBSD 9.2 is End-of-Life and not supported any more.

Glad it helped. Are other packages being installed normally? For the portsnap(8) error, I have no clue.

Thank you very much. I've installed apache24, so I guess yeah ;)

Yeah, found out about that shortly after. I know 9.2 is no longer supported. But I have a really old and crappy system (Intel ATOM with 4 GB RAM). I'm only using FreeBSD within FreeNAS Jails (FreeNAS 9.3 requires 8 GB RAM), and everything else works perfectly (Logitech Media Server, DLNA-Server and so on).
