Try this.

cd /usr/ports/java/openjdk7
make install
make clean

If the directory /usr/ports does not exist you can create it with this.
portsnap fetch
portsnap extract

To update the ports directory to the latest version:
portsnap fetch
portsnap update

See the online handbook for more information about ports and FreeBSD.

Regards,
Ronald.
