Description

I am a digital forensic examiner for the Orlando Police Department.

The system was configured several years ago but I believe that Darwinports was installed. I am not sure which version.

I have recently upgrade a MacBook Pro from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I installed the new version of Xcode. I need to upgrade the system to process two iPhones in a case we are working.

I have tried several times to upgrade to the current version of MacPorts but receive this error message:

jXXXXX-computer:~ jXXXXX$ sudo port -v selfupdate Synchronizing from rsync://rsync.darwinports.org/dpupdate/dports @ERROR: Unknown module 'dpupdate' rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-40/rsync/main.c(1398) [receiver=2.6.9] Error: /opt/local/bin/port: selfupdate failed: Couldn't sync dports tree: sync failed doing rsync

I attempted to install the DMG package which instructed me to upgrade the MacPorts to 1.7.1

I attempted to do this but because I am now running Snow Leopard the older upgrades will not install do to the OS version not matching.

How can I upgrade my system.

Thank you in advance.
