In simple terms the source of frustration is a sense of failure brought on initially by poor, 'self-related expectation management' by both the emotional and logical sides of the brain...
I assume you want me to explain a bit more than that (?) of course you do - and I hope it makes sense - but I'm warning you now, you made need to reread it once or twice...Now don't complain its a darn big question here that yyou're asking !!!.............
Usually we, as intelligent human beings, assess the ease of a task before we embark on it (this can take the human brain and its electric circuitry seconds in reality to weigh up all the facts it has to work from). But soemtimes the brain can get it wrong and the desired outcome and the expected result is unfortunately not realised. So what happens next (?) well usually repeating the action in arrogant disbelief, expecting the result to be somewhat different. Or, the next step is repeating the action to attempt to understand the reason for its initial failure. Both steps however, can lead only to a deepening feeling of failure, increasing the level of frustration.
(Not only does the person fail to deliver the expected result they had first anticipated, they also fail to assess the task difficulty level accuaretly. Even with repeating the task they can also fail to understand the logical reason for not actually achieving the desired outcome)...
Expected success + Failure to deliver + Failure to Assess + Failure to re-assess and establish the 'know how' = Frustration!
This frustration and its source, often leads the person to want to urgently seek to take away these feeling of failure and replace them with feelings of success (success they had assessed to arrive much sooner, not after failure but instead of it). So, this unexpected feeling of failure often is followed by a very hasty reaction by the brain and, as the 'know how' is still not clear, the brain merely sends a speedy message to just repeat the previous action taken. Why (?) because its initial priority is to remove the sense of unexpected but now very real feeling of failure - and not establish a solution. This action of course is pointless as it is unlikely to be anymore successful than the first attempt however, it does serve to temporarily remove those feelings of failure - (whilst they person is 'attempting' to produce the desired outcome again it momentarily has succeeded in removing the feelings of failure). Now of course the repetition of action also quickly leads to the same result and the return feeling of failure - and so the original source of the frustration spirals to a whole new level.
A person can become stuck in this cycle, like a dog chasing its tail until they take a step back, take a very long and deep breath accept their original assessment and expectation was wrong - and allow the brain to reassess the problem again, with added information and a whole new and different - more logical, perspective.
A good example is hanging a picture on a wall. Perhaps initially assessed as being a 5-minute job but the brain could not anticiapte the invisible iron-beam directly behind the wall surface, where the nail is to be positioned and picture hung. '8' bent nails later, a crushed thumb and no picture on the wall leads to the rising frustration caused by failure and poor self expectation management. I am sure if the person stopped after the second attempt and took that much needed step back to reassess the whole issue....the wall...the surface...the bent nails...the position..etc they would have diluted the sense of failure and level of frustration but unfortunately the expectation had already been assessed and planted in the brain as being only a 5-minute job.
In summary, the source of frustration is a sense of failure and poor self-expectation management that the brain, both the logical and emotional sides, sometimes finds difficult to accept straight away.
I hope this is clear.
Sincerely
Kaizen Kasei

Source? From you yourself! No one can make you angry or sad or frustrated, unless YOU allowed them to! Why feel frustrated, especially over things that you have no control with. Live with it, forgive and forget. Walk away! Life goes on, a better one!

Frustration? Your question is vague. And what causes it varies by personal tolerance. If you want to know the root of the word, you'll need to look into etymology, and pychology for further context. Please clarify your question.
If you want things that frustrate me.
Unfairness
Bad reasoning.
Assumption
Refusing to listen.
Apathy to one's behavior.

personally, disorganization, chaos, confusion, when you cant explain things to people, things that are beyond our control, people who dont understand you, or scientifically frustration is caused by the brain reacting to a certain situation that causes stress that wont go away

It could be something that one has no control or just worrying too much.
