Error

Mon Apr 19 11:35:12 PDT 2004

I recently started to get the below noted error on my FreeBSD server. I looked all over for a fix and posted on a help forum to try and figure it out with no luck. I've also attached a copy of my make.conf file and a list of the packages I have. Being fairly new to FreeBSD I didn't know what it meant by "environment", but below is the output from uname -a.
