that is probably not a firewall issue, it's typically because something is already listening on the port (and optionally bind) combination. Look at netstat -tnlp | grep 8000, that should show the pid and process name listening on the port, typically an icecast already running.

Hi everyone,

While what KarlH said is true in most of the cases, mine was different. I was trying to start icecast2 on an AWS EC2 instance, and it turns out it cannot bind on a public IP address. Instead, I had to use a private IP – one can get it from the instance description in AWS console, or by running the ifconfig command.
