Comment:

 You probably don't want to "upgrade installed"; though it should not cause
 any problems, it will be quicker to use "upgrade outdated".

 To the original error "Could not open file:
 /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/erlang/otp_doc_html_R13B04.tar.gz", have
 you already tried cleaning erlang and trying to upgrade it again?

 To the second error "file not found: /opt/local/lib/libjpeg.7.dylib", jpeg
 was updated to version 8 in r64763 so it's not surprising there isn't a
 libjpeg.7.dylib on your system. (There's probably a libjpeg.8.dylib
 instead.) So we need to work out which port you have that's still linking
 with jpeg 7 that hasn't been upgraded yet. Possibly it's one of the
 remaining ports in the list "port outdated" that erlang is coincidentally
 using when it shouldn't be. Try upgrading the remaining ports in the list
 first.

 So, please "sudo port selfupdate" so you have the latest port definitions,
 then "sudo port clean erlang" to clean out this failed attempt, then look
 at "port outdated" and "sudo port upgrade" any ports other than erlang
 that are outdated. Then lastly come back and "sudo port upgrade erlang".
 Let us know how it goes.
