Can't update ports

X

Yesterday I moved my server over to ZFS. Afterwards I updated all my ports and everything was great. This morning I tried the same thing and this happened:
Code: 
alpha# pkg_version -vIL=
pkg_version: the package info for package '.zfs' is corrupt
netpbm-10.35.85                     <   needs updating (index has 10.35.86)
tiff-4.0.2                          <   needs updating (index has 4.0.2_1)

First worrying thing was the .zfs is corrupt message...is this normal?

Then I tried to upgrade those ports and this is what happened:
Code: 
alpha# portmanager -u
MGPMrCreateInstalledDb 0.4.1_9 error: (1) rCreateInstalledDbVerifyContentsFile returned errorCode 1
MGPMrCreateInstalledDb 0.4.1_9 error: (1) rCreateInstalledDbVerifyContentsFile returned errorCode 1
------------------------------------------------------------------------
portmanager 0.4.1_9: Collecting installed port data
------------------------------------------------------------------------
MGPMrCreateInstalledDb 0.4.1_9 error: (1) rCreateInstalledDbVerifyContentsFile returned errorCode 1
------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Port Status Report
------------------------------------------------------------------------
========================================================================
portmanager 0.4.1_9 INFO: all ports are up to date

What is causing this?
 
I tried running:
Code: 
cd /usr/ports && make fetchindex

cd /usr/ports && make index

But now when I try to run either:
Code: 
pkg_version -vIL=

portmanager -u

Nothing seems to happen. When I do a Ctrl T it says:
Code: 
alpha# make index

and:

Code: 
alpha# pkg_version -vIL=
load: 0.08  cmd: pkg_version 91477 [zfs] 107.77r 0.00u 0.00s 0% 1776k
load: 0.04  cmd: pkg_version 91477 [zfs] 147.89r 0.00u 0.00s 0% 1776k

I can't even escape out of this screen (Ctrl Z). Any ideas?

Its just so strange that I could run all these commands successfully last night and now than I tried running them again this morning this is happening.
 
I have rebooted the server but I am still unable to update my ports. Still getting the same error as described in the first post.

Does anyone have any ideas? I have tried researching it but have come away from it all empty handed ;-(
 
The .zfs message comes from /var/db/pkg/.zfs directory, you have the snapdir property set to visible for some reason and pkg_version(8) tries to make sense of the directory. Set the snapdir property to hidden for all of your ZFS filesystems.
