I am getting 404 as http://packages.macports.org/expat does not have required file. It has "expat-2.0.1_1.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2" but macports are trying to fetch "expat-2.0.1_1.darwin_11.x86_64.tbz2" -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32385#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Those are packages; we're talking about distfiles. What does the file /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/expat/expat-2.0.1.tar.gz contain? It's supposed to be a gzipped tar archive of the expat source, but the error message tells us it's actually an HTML file, so for example copy that file to your desktop, rename it with .html at the end of the filename, and open it in a text editor or a web browser and tell us what it says. Or just attach it here. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32385#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Too bad their error message didn't tell us which mirror it was that was having the problem. Clean and try again. Hopefully they've resolved the problem by now. If not, talk to SourceForge. {{{ sudo port clean --all expat }}} Curiously, a [https://www.google.com/search?q="There+was+a+problem+serving+the+download" Google search for "There was a problem serving the download"] yields only this ticket. So it would appear to be a problem nobody else has ever documented before. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32385#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
