You can safely ignore those warnings. To fix them, ran the following and reboot:

chkconfig --level 2345 asterisk off

This turns off the default system Asterisk startup scripts which runs Asterisk as user Asterisk (that's why permission denied in /var/lib/asterisk/astdb). The default GOautodial Asterisk startup script is ran automatically if this is disabled.

Have tried that however following restart asterisk doesnt start. If I use the command service asterisk start I think get the same issues again.

If there a command I can use to start asterisk using Goautodial config?

Can you check your /etc/rc.local? This should have the following entries:

#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.

### uncomment If kernel RAM drive is enabled
### mke2fs -m 0 /dev/ram0
### mount /dev/ram0 /var/spool/asterisk/monitor
### mkdir /var/spool/asterisk/monitor/DONE
### mkdir /var/spool/asterisk/monitor/ORIG

# OPTIONAL enable ip_relay(for same-machine trunking and blind monitoring)
/usr/share/astguiclient/ip_relay/relay_control start  2>/dev/null 1>&2

### Disable console blanking and powersaving
### /usr/bin/setterm -blank
### /usr/bin/setterm -powersave off
### /usr/bin/setterm -powerdown

### start time server
/usr/sbin/ntpdate -u pool.ntp.org

### roll the Asterisk logs upon reboot
