Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))
I get an error when I upgrade outdated port on my MacBook Pro, OS X, 10.7.4
My macports version is 2.1.1.
I run port upgrade outdated, and the following is error message:
Error: Unable to upgrade port: couldn't open "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_archivers_zlib/zlib/work/.macports.zlib.state": permission denied
Any suggestion to fix this problem is really appreciated.

I did run port with root account with the command sudo port upgrade outdated.
I have check /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_archivers_zlib/zlib/work/ dir, there is no such .macports.zilib.state file.
Can anybody tell me that does this error means? This error blocks me upgrading any port. Thanks for any suggestion.

Please run "sudo port clean zlib" and then try again to "sudo port upgrade zlib".

Thank you very much for this suggestion. Even I have uninstalled and reinstalled MacPorts. My problem has been fixed. Your suggestion is better way to fix this issue I think.
