If you were using MacPorts from trunk you would not experience this problem because MacPorts in trunk adds the "old" download location to the apache mirror...

For now you can manually download apache-2.2.8.tar.bz2 from http://distfiles.macports.org/apache2/ or http://archive.apache.org/dist/httpd/ and put it in /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/apache2

Apache 2.2.9 has been released, so the port should be updated to this version.

A simple workaround:

$ sudo env MASTER_SITE_LOCAL=http://distfiles.macports.org/apache2 port -v fetch apache2

This will fetch the file from the new distfiles mirror.

Thank you very much for your help. I apologize if I messed things up making this post. I haven't used WikiFormatting before. The simple workaround worked beautifully.

You have provided excellent support, and I appreciate it very much.
