Make sure that whatever user the master runs as (probably user
'puppet') has write permissions to /var/log/puppet/.
Note that even if you start the master as root, it will switch to
whatever user it is configured to run as ('puppet' by default).
I also notice that your error message say 'var/log/...' and not
'/var/log/...' (notice the first /). If that is really what it says,
you may need to modify your logdir setting.
