#43066: ports "mapm3" meets an unhanded internal error, and macports can't be updated --------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: 474403670@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: | --------------------------+-------------------------------- Old description:
Several months ago, i installed a port "mapm3" through Mac Ports, but now when i load data into MAPMAKER/QTL, it always show: error: unable to load data from file line -200938496: data file not loaded *** Drats! An unhandled internal error occured. *** Error message #24 (bad quant data file) was sent.
i think it must be a internal error, so i want to update the Mac Ports, but it alway show: ~ Sophia$ port MacPorts 2.2.1 Entering interactive mode... ("help" for help, "quit" to quit) [Users/Sophia] > sudo port selfupdate Error: Unrecognized action "port sudo" [Users/Sophia] > [Users/Sophia] > port Can't map the URL 'file://.' to a port description file ("Could not find Portfile in /Users/Sophia"). Please verify that the directory and portfile syntax are correct. To use the current port, you must be in a port's directory. [Users/Sophia] >
what was the matter?

The correct way to update MacPorts is to run {{{ sudo port selfupdate }}} at the shell prompt. Do ''not'' run "port" by itself first, because that puts you into the MacPorts interactive mode, which as you've discovered, does not know any command named "sudo". To exit the MacPorts interactive mode, you can type "quit" and press Return. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43066#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
