Do you have a basedir specified in the <paths> element and have
<chroot>1</chroot> in the <security> element below?
If so, the paths you specify in <logdir> and <webroot> need to be
*relative* to the basedir.
eg,
<paths>
<basedir>/usr/local/icecast2</basedir>
<logdir>/logs</logdir>
<webroot>/web</webroot>
</paths>
...
<security>
<chroot>1</chroot>
<changeowner>
<user>icecast</user>
<group>icecast</group>
</changeowner>
</security>
Try this and see if it helps?
