Server installation problem using freebsd ports

From

Hi,

This might be a very small problem but I am stuck. When I try to
install postgresql server 8.3.3 on freebsd using ports, I am getting -
  "postgresql-server-8.3.3 cannot install: unknown PostgreSQL version:
83"
I was able to install client. This has something to do with pgsql_ver.
What's wrong here?

Thanks

There was no issue with client. This has something to do with pgsql_ver. What's wrong here?

Hi,

update your ports tree (cvsup/portsnap) and try again.
If not working, show your /etc/make.conf


p.s. this is FreeBSD specific question and should go to freebsd-questions@

Or freebsd-ports, but either way it's working fine for me here on
FreeBSD 6 with PG 8.3 port from a recent ports tree.  It's likely
something out of sync or otherwise hosed in your ports or your
make.conf.
