I'm new to FreeNAS but had been using Plex for about 5 years until about 2 years ago, when my old NAS stopped supporting the latest version of Plex. I've also used *nix computers since the late 1970s, but only returned to BSD when I started using FreeNAS.
I started following "Installing Plex Media Server in a FreeNAS Jail (FreeBSD port)" by jostro. This tutorial covers the nitty-gritty of using the CLI to manually set up the PMS in a jail. Given that it says installing the native package is optional, I skipped directly to the instructions for a port install. After establishing a SSH connection to the server and logging in a root, I issued these commands:
This results in the following (error) messages:
It appears portsnap no longer supports the version of FreeBSD bundled with FreeNAS 11.1. So now what do I do?

jls # To discover the jail number (<jn>) of plexpasspms

portsnap fetch # Download a current snapshot of the ports collection
portsnap extract # Extract it and store the snapshot in /usr/ports -- There are quite a few!!!
cd /usr/ports/multimedia/plexmediaserver-plexpass # Go to the directory of the plexpass PMS port
make install
