Is it commonplace for Sony MiniDV HC28 camcorders' charger ports to stop working?

Question

I was recording something with the charger plugged in, and I am not sure what happened but I heard some sort of quick sizzle sound and now whenever I plug anything into the port the camera turns off. I have gotten a separate battery charger but is my port now forever useless? Is this common? Do you have any idea how it could have happened?
