Checksum errors with nagios-plugins and nrpe

[rlwall@…]

I am getting checksum errors when trying to install nagios-plugins and nrpe on Macs running 10.8.4. I am able to install other ports like nmap etc. The error is as follows:

port install nrpe
--->  Verifying checksums for nrpe
Error: org.macports.checksum for port nrpe returned: nrpe-2.12.tar.gz does not exist in /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/nrpe
Please see the log file for port nrpe for details:
    /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_net_nrpe/nrpe/main.log
To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
    http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port nrpe failed

It downloads the files and dependencies, but seems to fail on the checksums. This has happened on three separate servers. I installed both nagios-plugins and nrpe a few weeks ago and had no problems.

I can fetch and checksum nagios-plugins and nrpe without fuss. Please ​clean and try again and attach the complete main.log if you continue to encounter the issue.

I did a port clean on the effected ports and was able to install nrpe, but the nagios-plugins are still giving me the same error.

Here are the steps that I followed and errors I get. I'm running commands as root:

sh-3.2# port clean nagios-plugins

sh-3.2# port install nagios-plugins

It looks like it's failing on the dependancies.

Replying to rlwall@…:

--->  Verifying checksums for p5.12-crypt-des
Error: org.macports.checksum for port p5.12-crypt-des returned: Crypt-DES-2.05.tar.gz does not exist in /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/perl5

I can also fetch and checksum p5.12-crypt-des. Perhaps you tried to install these ports before and left the work directory behind (which would be why MacPorts thinks it doesn’t have to fetch) but later deleted the distfiles manually? I don’t know. Might as well try this.

% sudo port clean all

Thanks for your help. I did as you instructed and did a "sudo port clean all" and then tried to reinstall nagios-plugins and got the same error. I then switched my DNS from OpenDNS (208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220) to google's public DNS (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4), cleaned all ports again and was then able to successfully install the nagios-plugins port. So, this may be more of a OpenDNS issue than a Macports issue. Thanks again for your help. Sorry for making a pigs ear out of the initial ticket.

Sincerely

Richard Wall
