Also i made fresh install with latest rolling still problem persists
You are missing IP-address on eth0 (and eth2, eth3, eth4 and eth5).
Personally I would make sure to set “shutdown” on these otherwise ISC DHCP Server will try to utilize them (even if you didnt configure any DHCP server on them) and thats whats probably is failing in your case (since the smoketest of the nightly is passing all DHCP server tests).
So either try to configure a dummy IP-address on all (something like 127.0.100.1/24, 127.0.102.1/24 and so on should do) or better put shutdown on interfaces you wont use.

hello apachez i disabled all other interfaces(eth0 is pppoe so cant disable )rest interfaces which not used
set interfaces ethernet eth2 disable
and now its working ,will report back since i always never disabled before and didn’t face any issues prior
Thanks again Apachez MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR WISHES!!!
Hello i can confirm there is some bug in the latest rolling release related to dhcp server because i installed it also in my office labour camp with 200 users there too it randomly stops giving out dhcp leases even though i disabled unused interfaces…
Still issue persists when u create a new install its fine but upgrading breaks dhcp server ,tried in latest rolling releases 
why no solution???
The DHCP server migrated to KEA.
You have to add some debug info/logs to solve this issue. âš“ T3316 Use Kea DHCP(v6) instead of ISC DHCP(v6)
