F5 LTM "configuration utility restarting" error

F5 LTM "configuration utility restarting" error in UI after launching the URL. No upgrade was performed. its lab test environment has a version is BIG-IP 11.6.3 Build 0.0.3 Final. License information looks ok.
I tried restarting all services and during restart, the terminal window showed "Restrting lind service" continuously.

Following are the some of the logs snippets:

httpd_errors:
May 19 20:25:32 bigip1 err httpd[12439]: [error] (111)Connection refused: proxy: AJP: attempt to connect to 127.0.0.1:8009 (*) failed
May 19 20:25:32 bigip1 err httpd[12439]: [error] proxy: AJP: failed to make connection to backend: localhost


tomcat logs: catalina.out - empty

I tried restarting both tomcat and httpd service but still could not get it running. ran the following command:
'bigstart restart httpd' or 'bigstart restart tomcat'.

Following is the mcp state:

[root@bigip1:INOPERATIVE:Standalone] config # tmsh show sys mcp-state

-------------------------------------------------------
Sys::mcpd State:
-------------------------------------------------------
Running Phase base
Last Configuration Load Status high-config-load-failed


I cannot figure out what could be the issue as i am new to F5. Can you please help?

Thank you.

@SwapnilM20 that is a pretty old code version. Have you attempted to perform a code upgrade through the CLI to see if that resolves the issue? The following might be the solution but I'm not 100% positive on that.
