Hi Sruthi, if you're running Graylog on Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL, or CentOS, I'd recommend using the official operating system packages <http://docs.graylog.org/en/1.3/pages/installation/operating_system_packages.html> instead of installing Graylog manually from the tarball.
This being said, the graylogctl script simply can't find the PID file it created at /tmp/graylog.pid when starting Graylog. Make sure that no instance of Graylog is running (e. g. with jps or ps -ef|grep java) and then simply run graylogctl start.
