Why a match won't always light up the first time you strike it?
A match may not light on the first strike due to factors such as humidity affecting the matchstick, the quality of the match, or improper striking technique. Too much or too little friction when striking the match against the striker can also prevent it from igniting.
What is the red bit on a match?
On a safety match (the kind you strike on a box) the red bit is primarily a compound called potassium chlorate. The strip on the box is red phosphorous. When you strike it on the box the two compounds create an explosive mixture which is then ignited by the heat and sparks produced by friction between the strip and the match head. Strike anywhere matches put the two compounds together on the match, the red is the phosphorous and the white tip is potassium chlorate. When you strike the match they mix and catch fire similar to striking a safety match on the box.
If you strike a safety match across an untreated striking surface will it light?

It is difficult to strike a match on a smooth surface because the friction needed to ignite the match head is lacking.

Smooth surfaces do not create enough friction to generate the heat required to light the match.

What is the source of activation energy that ignites a strike-anywhere match?
The source of activation energy that ignites a strike-anywhere match is friction between the match head and the matchbox, which creates enough heat to ignite the match head. When you strike the match against the rough surface on the matchbox, the friction generates heat that is sufficient to initiate the chemical reaction in the match head, leading to ignition.
