Error: csf is being restarted, try again in a moment: Resource temporarily unavailable at /usr/sbin/csf line 176.

Hi,

I rebooted my server and the boot is stuck as CSF failed to start.

When I tried restarting the following error is shown.

[root@server ~]# csf -x
Error: csf is being restarted, try again in a moment: Resource temporarily unavailable at /usr/sbin/csf line 176.

When checked what is stopping from server to completely boot we found the following.

[root@server ~]# systemctl status | head -5
● server.sastaservers.com
State: starting
Jobs: 5 queued
Failed: 3 units
Since: Wed 2019-06-19 16:35:34 IST; 6h ago
[root@server ~]# systemctl list-jobs
JOB UNIT TYPE STATE
223 csf.service start running
247 lfd.service start waiting
197 systemd-update-utmp-runlevel.service start waiting
212 systemd-readahead-done.timer start waiting
103 multi-user.target start waiting

Please help me with the following issue as I am not sure how to proceed after this.

Thank you,
Shirish

Just delete the lockfile and restart:

# rm /var/lib/csf/csf.lock
# csf -x
# csf -e
