I used hostapd-mana 2.3 on my old ubuntu version.
Now working with hostapd 2.6 over ubuntu 18 and kernel 4.14 I can't create more than one AP
My wireless card supports up to 8 APs, i don't get any errors, but I can see that my iface wlan0_0 is down, when trying to "up" it says "device busy".
Result is: only one AP is shown in wifi list on my pc/mobile.
Any thoughts?

Is that you taking the interface down? Is anything else interfering with them (NetworkManager?).
Eventiually it worked by creating separate virtual wlans and not BSS. so creating multiple hostapd configuration files, with different virtual interfaces worked.
Hi @johndoesenior, sorry @ u not related for the issue.
Learned that your nic looks powerful from the combination section, could u share your wireless card model? thanks,
valid interface combinations:
* #{ AP, mesh point } <= 8,
total <= 8, #channels <= 1
