Thanks for the superfast reaction.

You got me started thinking.

I got rid of the following lines number 3 and 8 hereunder. They were
present in the example xml and I think that they don't belong here
because icecast won't run if chroot is not being used........

Now it starts. I am very happy about this!!!! :-)

Try this:

   <security>
        <chroot>1</chroot> <!-- so that chage root is activated
-->
        <changeowner>
            <user>nobody</user> <!-- this must be an existing
user at
your
system -->
            <group>nogroup</group> <!-- this must be an existing
group
at
you rsystem -->
        </changeowner>
    </security>
</icecast>
