The following kind of message indicates some filesystem issue:

Unable to access /var/log/ambari-server directory. Confirm the directory is created and is writable by Ambari Server user account 'root'

.

So please check if you have the mentioned directory created and you are able to create some dummy files inside that dir.

# echo "Test" > /var/log/ambari-server/test.log
# mkdir -p /var/log/ambari-server/one


Check if somehow the "/var/log" filesystem has become read-only by any chance? May be rebooting the host will help in such cases.

Also please check if the file "ambari.properties" is showing correct username there:

# grep 'ambari-server.user' /etc/ambari-server/conf/ambari.properties
ambari-server.user=root

.

Ambari simply makes the following Python call to check if it is able to create directories inside the failing directory with 0755 permission or not?
