I have been messing with this for a while now and to no avail.
I have this thread that is now closed, that has near about everything that you would need to look at about my setup. icecast request parsing failed
The playlist I'm testing:
#!/usr/bin/liquidsoap
# Log dir
set("log.file.path","/var/log/liquidsoap/radioliq.log")
# Music
myplaylist = playlist("/home/UserName/music-store/")
# Some jingles
jingles = playlist("/home/UserName/music-store/jingles/jingles.m3u")
# If something goes wrong, we'll play this
security = single("/home/UserName/music-store/Sec.mp3")
# Start building the feed with music
radio = myplaylist
# Now add some jingles
radio = random(weights = [1, 4],[jingles, radio])
# And finally the security
radio = fallback(track_sensitive = false, [radio, security])
# Stream it out
output.icecast(%vorbis,
radio, host = "192.168.2.20", port = 8000,
password = "********", mount = "test.ogg")
When I run this
sudo /etc/init.d/liquidsoap restart
I get this
Stopping liquidsoap channels: no script found in /etc/liquidsoap
Starting liquidsoap channels: radio1.liq OK
It shows starting radio1.liq, however, it is STOPPING, because it cannot find anything in that directory, however. That is where it is picking up on the radio1.liq file.
When I run
sudo systemctl status liquidsoap
My output is this:

As you can tell, the Active is (exited) when other times, it is (running) like Icecast is. However, I usually have to do a reboot on the system, in order to get it to show (running)
I just did a reboot, and it is still showing (exited), this is the first time that it has not changed to (running). And usually it will give me an error that I have to fix something, but it is not doing it now.

I followed this page here, to get the logging to start.
Is there something I am missing here? is there something else that needs to be installed, in order to make liquidsoap function properly?
I followed this tutorial on the installation. Create an internet radio station with Icecast and liquidsoap
I really do not know what else to add to this. I have gone through everything and even did some extras while writing this up. Please let me know if there is anything else that you may need for me to check on. And please, have a look at my other thread, for more information on what I have set up here. icecast request parsing failed
running the following code.
curl -v 192.168.2.4:8000 >/dev/null
gives me this.

Thank You.

It has been a while since I messed with Icecast2 and Liquidsoap.
However, I did just that a few weeks ago.
After struggling for some time, I figured it out after getting help from another person and watching a video.
It was all a permissions issue.
Once you create your user, "Icedemo."
(logged in as root)
adduser Icedemo
Give user SUDO rights.
usermod -aG sudo Icedemo
Now give permissions to Icedemo to all the folders.
/opt/liquidsoap/Playlists/
/var/log/liquidsoap/
/etc/icecast2/web/
/etc/icecast2/admin/
Use the following script to give permissions.
cd /opt
sudo chown -Rv icedemo:icedemo liquidsoap/
cd /var/log/
sudo chown -Rv icedemo:icedemo liquidsoap/
cd /etc/icecast2/
sudo chown -Rv icedemo:icedemo web/
sudo chown -Rv icedemo:icedemo admin/
Leave permission the same for the icecast.xml file.
Log in as your user Icedemo
su Icedemo
Once you have done all the above and your script is properly formatted. Something like this.
# !/home/iceadmin/.opam/default/bin/liquidsoap
# log dir
set ("log.file.path","/var/log/liquidsoap/basic-radio.log")
set("scheduler.fast_queues",1)
# Music
music = playlist("/opt/liquidsoap/playlists/RadioOne.m3u",mode="normal",reload_mode="watch")
# Start building the feed with music
radio = music
# Stream it out
output.icecast(%mp3(bitrate=256,samplerate=44100,internal_quality=0,id3v2=true,stereo=true,stereo_mode="stereo"),
name="Radio",
encoding="UTF-8",
host="192.168.2.203",
port=8000,
password="hackme",
icy_metadata="true",
description="Internet Radio Station",
mount="Radio",
mksafe(radio))
We will need to restart each service.
#Restart IceCast
sudo systemctl restart icecast2
#Check status of IceCast
sudo systemctl status icecast2
(Ctrl+Z to go to prompt)
Next, we will need to do the same to Liquidsoap.
#Restart Liquidsoap
sudo systemctl restart radio.liq-liquidsoap
#Check status of Liquidsoap
sudo systemctl status radio.liq-liquidsoap
(After checking the status, you can use (Ctrl+Z to go to prompt))
Your output of the Liquidsoap status should look similar to mine.
Icedemo@linuxcore-03:~/liquidsoap-daemon$ sudo systemctl status radio.liq-liquidsoap

May 24 03:47:01 linuxcore-03 systemd[1]: Started radio.liq Liquidsoap daemon.
If the above is showing: Active: active (running)
Next, check your Icecast webpage, and you should see your mountpoints, and your radio should be working.
To access the radio station in our example script above would be.
(local) 192.168.2.203:8000/Radio
This will load the player in its own browser window, and your stream should start on its own. If not, click the PLAY button.
That's it; that is how you get your streaming radio to work.
I hope this helps others out.
