selfupdate giving "Error synchronizing MacPorts sources" error

[nurvzy@…]

I'm getting an error trying to run selfupdate. Here's the output:

sudo port -d selfupdate
DEBUG: MacPorts sources location: /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs
--->  Updating MacPorts base sources using rsync
@ERROR: chdir failed
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-42/rsync/main.c(1398) [receiver=2.6.9]
shell command "/usr/bin/rsync -rtzv --delete-after rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/base.tar /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs" returned error 5

    while executing
"macports::selfupdate [array get global_options] base_updated"
Error: /opt/local/bin/port: port selfupdate failed: Error synchronizing MacPorts sources: shell command failed (see log for details)

Any idea what I should do?
