That's the addgroup/adduser calls failing. While the port should switch to setting add_users instead, that still just runs dscl behind the scenes. Does dscl work when you run it manually? Does that launchctl message mean that dscl has failed, or should we be ignoring it? Why is it even trying to load com.apple.DirectoryServicesLocal.plist, which doesn't exist because it has been replaced by opendirectoryd?

Are you running in single user mode or something? If so, does it work when you run port using sudo from an admin account instead?

Pauls-MacBook:~ crosma$ sudo dscl
launchctl: Couldn't stat("/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.DirectoryServicesLocal.plist"): No such file or directory
nothing found to load
Entering interactive mode... (type "help" for commands)

I'm not running in single user mode. Running without sudo produces the same message. I am using an admin account.

Replying to jmr@…:

Does that launchctl message mean that dscl has failed, or should we be ignoring it?

We can ignore the message, just a sec, let me find the citation...

Edit: here we go: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4819128 (the original Apple support page is dead so we'll just have to go with my discussion thread posted in response to it instead...)
