We had defined one MQ service object to start some application.
Few time when we restarted the service using START/STOP SERVICE(<NAME>) command. We are unable to find the SERVICE status and still the app process is down.
We are running the script manually to fix the issue.
Could you please suggest  |

Does START SERVICE respond that it has started the service successfully?
Do you have any other similar services that are working correctly?
Carefully check all the SERVICE attribute settings. A simple mistake can result in the command failing. Can you post a display of the service definition?

Can you start the service manually from a shell/command prompt? From the MQExplorer?

If it works when you start the queue manager, but doesn't work when you use MQSC, then there's some kind of state that the application is holding on to, and failing to find or etc after it launches the second time.
If it doesn't start when you start the queue manager, then you probably don't have the right permissions - services run under the user that is running the queue manager (this is very likely mqm - so normally you would write a service script that used sudo or contact admin).

There should be something in the qmgr error logs when a service is started. eg.
AMQ5028: The Server 'xxxxxxxx' has started. ProcessId(9999999).
or
AMQ5042: Request to start SERVICE - xxxxxxxx failed.
preceded by another message in the error containing the reason why it failed.

Use MQSC command to display the service definition. Post the results here.
Open a shell, and issue the MQSC START SERVICE command. Post the command and results here.

I am unable to display the service status.

We're after the service object definition, not its status:
DISPLAY SERVICE(servicename)

Post your appget.bat code.
What happens if you exec the appget.bat in a shell? Post the results here.

Also, you shouldn't as a recommended practice, keep any user code in "C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\bin", or any MQ product directory.
You can also look at altering the STDOUT attribute to write to a file instead of nowhere.

Your problem is that you have defined it as a SERVTYPE(COMMAND).
Knowledge Center says this:-
| Knowledge Center wrote: |
SERVTYPE
Specifies the mode in which the service is to run:
COMMAND
A command service object. Multiple instances of a command service object can be executed concurrently. You cannot monitor the status of command service objects.
SERVER
A server service object. Only one instance of a server service object can be executed at a time. The status of server service objects can be monitored using the DISPLAY SVSTATUS command. |
