[Icecast] Problem accessing playlist.txt

Hi,
Everything seems to be set up properly but I keep getting the following
message:

Logfile opened
Error opening /usr/local/etc/Henri-Chopin.mp3 : Error opening: No such
file or directory
Playlist file name is empty, shutting down.
Ices Exiting...

My ices.conf file has this:
 <Playlist>
    <!-- This is the filename used as a playlist when using the builtin
     playlist handler. -->
    <File>playlist.txt</File>
    <!-- Set this to 0 if you don't want to randomize your playlist, and
to
     1 if you do. -->
    <Randomize>1</Randomize>

    <Type>builtin</Type>
    <!-- Module name to pass to the playlist handler if using  perl or
python.
     If you use the builtin playlist handler then this is ignored -->
    <Module>ices</Module>
    <!-- Set this to the number of seconds to crossfade between tracks.
         Leave out or set to zero to disable crossfading (the default).
    <Crossfade>5</Crossfade>
    -->
  </Playlist>

and the playlist.txt it refers to has this

/user/peter/Desktop/Henri-Chopin.mp3

so it should work.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Peter
