I restarted the icecast server as:
sudo /etc/init.d/icecast2 restart
</pre>
              <pre>I tried to add a username/password to the /example.ogg stream and I get the following message in the error.log file:
[2018-10-27  01:11:26] INFO admin/admin_handle_request Received admin command manageauth.xsl on mount "/example.ogg"

[2018-10-27  01:11:26] WARN auth_htpasswd/htpasswd_adduser Failed to open authentication database "myauth": Permission denied

</pre>
              <pre>Can someone please advice whree is the database "myauth" written to, so I can verify that directory has the correct permissions?

</pre>
              <pre>Thanks in advance.
