From the error message that you posted, you don't have read permissions on /dev/video0 (aka your webcam possibly).
So if you do
ls -l /dev/video0 my guess is that it's set for root root.
Is the user that you login with in the video group? If not put yourself into the video group, and change the group for /dev/video0 to video, and then log out and log back in.
