Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))
Hello, I am new to macport and unix. I am trying to installing grace using macport, however, I keep getting error "org.macports.fetch for port grace returned: fetch failed"
I tried sudo port clean, update, xcode update and redo port update, but nothing works.
I am attaching log file, I hope its of any help. Maybe its the problem of the server, but I am not sure, how to verify it.

I've moved the log from the description to an attachment.
The problem seems to be that the port's files are only available on FTP servers, and your network presumably forbids interacting with FTP servers. You could talk to your network administrator about removing that restriction.
The MacPorts servers have historically had difficulty fetching from FTP servers as well. We had worked around that, but just at this moment, it seems to not be working again. I'll ask our server administrators to see if we can resolve that again. If they can, then the MacPorts servers will begin mirroring these files again, and then you'll be able to fetch them from our HTTP servers instead.
Let's call this a duplicate of #45262.
