Extracting snapshot... tar: Unrecognized archive format

Downloaded file is probably corrupted. I would empty /var/db/portsnap/files folder and try # portsnap fetch extract again.

Maybe something wrong with your tar?

I would try to untar downloaded file by hand and additionally to download some different tared file and try untar it also as first easiest test.

A full disk could be one reason that the snapshot.tgz is corrupted and tar fails reading it

 

[mfeldheim]

check disk usage using "df -h"
using "portsclean -CDLP" may free a lot of space. It cleans up old distfiles, working directories, libraries and package tarballs

lb-002 ~ # head -n 1000 HTML-Parser-3.64.tar.gz > simulateFullDiskCorrupted.tar.gz
lb-002 ~ # tar -zxvf test.tar.gz
tar: Unrecognized archive format
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
