I was getting this error because both file was corrupted in below root.

Solution:

You must copy the sawguidstate.atr and sawguidstate file from the path

C:\OCB\instances\instance1\bifoundation\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\catalog\SampleAppLite\root\system\mktgcache\dadvmh0229

The service can start now.
