cd /Library/PreferencePanes/Squeezebox.prefPane/Contents/server/
../slimserver.pl

Heck... I don't know how this gets changed to two dots all the time! I've copy/pasted instructions to the terminal to verify them myself. I knew we've had that confusion about ./s... vs. ../.s... before. Yet, it now shows with two dots again?!?

$ ./slimserver.pl
Can't open /Users/david/Library/Logs/Squeezebox/server.log (Permission
denied) at
/Library/PreferencePanes/Squeezebox.prefPane/Contents/server/CPAN/Log/Log4perl/Appender/File.pm
line 103.

$ ls -ld /Users/david/Library/Logs/Squeezebox
drwxr--r--  2 root  staff  68 23 Dec  2014
/Users/david/Library/Logs/Squeezebox

Ok, great. The usual problem. I don't know why we still don't handle this. The installer should fix permissions on that folder. Yet it doesn't do so.

sudo chown -R david /Users/david/Library/Logs/Squeezebox

^ that should fix it. (if "david" is your username)

Thanks for the help, I'm guessing changing the perms will be the
solution, but now await your instructions.

Yes, exactly. That folder should not be owned by root, but by your user. Either change the owner to yourself (as outlined above) or change the permissions to give everybody write access. But you seem to know what you're doing anyway ;-)
