It would help a lot if you told us exactly what errors you're getting. We also like to know which FreeBSD version you're using.

I retry installing it with make reinstall clean and everything go right without error.
Then I run % nspluginwrapper -v -a -i for any user BUT still i can not browse the websites that contain Flash!
 
Has anyone gotten Flash working with Chromium on FreeBSD? I am having similar problems, Firefox can see the plugin whereas Chromium cannot.

No, read the chromium audio/video stack.

But that is the case for me. At least when I build it from ports. Nor videos from BBC sites. I can watch youtube in firefox and in chromium, but I can't watch facebook embedded videos in firefox or chromium (facebook problem?), and BBC videos are available neither in firefox nor in chromium ("No Flash plugin" in chromium and some black-box hanging in firefox), only in Windows browsers (when I have access to Windows).
