Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

Unfortunately the log files don't show why samba failed to start. Please grep for samba and nmbd in the system log:

 grep -i samba /var/log/syslog > /tmp/smblogs
 grep -i smbd /var/log/syslog > /tmp/smblogs
 grep -i nmbd /var/log/syslog > /tmp/smblogs

and post the results here.
