PLCNext AXCF2152 not responding?

I am using PLCNext AXCF2152. I was able to connect to device from PLCNext Engineer but recently is has stopped responding to PLCNext Engineer. ACF is not loading application either. I tried to restart PLC multiple times but there was no response. Resting plcnext service is giving following error.

root@axcf2152:~# /etc/init.d/plcnext restart
Stopping service plcnext
kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec ... or kill -l [sigspec]
Warning: Application with pid does not terminate within 20 seconds.
plcnext stopped
Starting service plcnext
Set plcnext exports
plcnext started (bus system is axioline)

Following is the content of /opt/plcnext/logs/Output.log

 Please suggest how to make PLC work again.

    Hi Vikash,

    The clue is in the Output.log file:

    Path '/opt/plcnext/projects/Default/Default.acf.config' does not exist.

    This is a file that is needed for the successful start of the PLCnext runtime, and I am guessing that this file has been deleted at some point.

    The simple solution is to log in as root (e.g. using the su command) and delete this file from the upper directory, using this command:

    rm /media/rfs/rw/upperdir/opt/plcnext/projects/Default/Default.acf.config

    This will restore the default version of this file that was installed with the firmware.

    Hope this helps.

    ~ Martin.

    Hi Martin,

    I tried above command. It failed with following error

    I was able to recover device using following command

    recover-plcnext 1

    PLCNext Engineer is now able to connect and ACF is also loading the application.
