"Can't map the URL 'file://.' to a port description file ("Could not find Portfile in /Users/Phil").
Please verify that the directory and portfile syntax are correct. To use the current port, you must be in a port's directory."

The clean command requires the port to be cleaned as argument.

Please try a clean attempt and attach the log file if it fails: 

$ sudo port clean octave
$ sudo port selfupdate
$ sudo port install octave +atlas+docs

In the future please use WikiFormatting and don't forget to Cc the maintainer and fill in the port field.
