I am getting the following error. Though my port is COM6. I have made the arduino as the programmer and am uploading the code to the atmega8.

This thread discusses the same issue: AVRdude can't find Com port - #5 by stubmandrel
Take careful note of the error message:
avrdude: AVR Part "COM6" not found.
The problem is not that the port is not found, as the title of the topic implies. The problem is that AVRDUDE is interpreting the -P COM6 flag as if it were specifying the part ID rather than the port. This is odd because -P is the correct flag, but AVRDUDE is interpreting your command as if you were using the -p flag instead. I am not able to reproduce the fault.
Please run the following command and then post the output in a reply here:
avrdude -?
Post the output as text. Do not post screenshots of text here on the forum.
