No surprise because eng.traineddata isn't there. I downloaded and opened tesseract-ocr-3.01.eng.tar.gz  and put the resulting 9 files into /opt/local/share/tessdata.

Don't manually download and install training data. Instead, install the corresponding sub-port:

$ port info tesseract | grep Sub-ports
Sub-ports:            tesseract-ara, tesseract-bul, tesseract-cat, tesseract-ces, tesseract-chi-sim, tesseract-chi-tra, tesseract-dan, tesseract-dan-frak, tesseract-deu, tesseract-deu-frak, tesseract-ell, tesseract-eng, tesseract-fin, tesseract-fra, tesseract-heb, tesseract-heb-com, tesseract-hin, tesseract-hun, tesseract-ind, tesseract-ita, tesseract-jpn, tesseract-kor, tesseract-lav, tesseract-lit, tesseract-nld, tesseract-nor, tesseract-pol, tesseract-por, tesseract-ron, tesseract-rus, tesseract-slk, tesseract-slk-frak, tesseract-slv, tesseract-spa, tesseract-srp, tesseract-swe, tesseract-swe-frak, tesseract-tgl, tesseract-tha, tesseract-tur, tesseract-ukr, tesseract-vie
