You're not getting the complete picture here, error message-wise.  The
daemons are apparently failing to load for some reason.  There may be
some verbosity flag that you could use while manually restarting the daemons,
but beyond that I am not familiar with kernel nfs, so somebody else will have
to assist you, or else you could try user-mode nfs, at least as a test.
