    Seems like a bug. You have a similar issue here http://askubuntu.com/questions/506103/problem-with-ap-hotspot. – João Silva Sep 18 '14 at 16:42

I found the solution to my problem from Internet. By removing the pid file in /tmp I got rid of this error "Another process is already running"

sudo rm /tmp/hotspot.pid

then start ap-hotspot as,

sudo ap-hotspot start
