Solution 1:[1]
I've had this issue when building a zabbix 4.0 server. To fix the issue I made sure that the path to the PID file was correct on '/etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf' and '/lib/systemd/system/zabbix-server.service'.
Interestingly restarting the service alone did not get rid of the error. I needed to reboot the server and this fixed the problem.

close the selinux on centos7 It works for me.
just close selinux for this time
setenforce 0
Close selinux forever
vi /etc/selinux/config
SELINUX=disabled

Remove current pid file + be sure that no zabbix_server process is running on your machine.

Zabbix server does not accept special chars like: !@#$%^&*()_+,./;'[]}{|":?>< in DBPassword variable.
