Are you upgrading from an older installation, or is it a new installation?

Okay, which user is the owner of /opt/ventrilo-server and the files inside?

Everything else is unchanged.
Sorry that was ventrilo_srv.log not ini file I changed.
Theres the problem. In the new ebuild, ventrilo runs as it's own user. chown the directory, so the ventrilo user owns it, and do the same thing with these files: ventrilo_srv.ini ventrilo_srv.motd ventrilo_srv.usr And see if that helps.
Yes that helped. Would be a good idea, if the ebuild could actually check/correct the owner of the files, and (if possible) copy over and existing ventrilo_srv.ini from /etc/ventrilo/ if there is one. Anyways, thanks for the effort.
Copying files from another location is not a possibility, since it is sandboxed. But I can add a warning informing users that they should make sure the directory and files are owned by the right user, and to copy their ini file if it is placed somewhere else. I'll see if I get time to do that later tonight.
