FaizirzaL,

This means that something is wrong with you /etc/inittab file. Reboot in single-user mode and comment out the offending entries in the inittab file, then reboot.

Check each entry until you find the problem, fix the problem, then re-enable them in the inittab and reboot again.

Regards,
Mark

You do not have to reboot or go into single user to fix this problem.

But be careful.

edit /etc/inittab.
find p_client.
change respawn to off
save the file
and issue
init -q

After you find and fix the problem.
edit inittab and change off back to respawn
and issue
init -q
