Error 1064: An exception occurred in the service when handling the control request

I was working on the Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations environment with Platform update 30, and I had removed a model from my Dev VM. After that, I noticed that batch jobs were not running, and the service 'Microsoft Dynamics 365 Unified Operations: Batch Management Service' was stopped.

When I tried to start the service, I encountered the following error:

Services

Windows could not start the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Unified Operations: Batch Management Service service on Local Computer.

Error 1064: An exception occurred in the service when handling the control request.

There were also some error messages in the Event log:

After researching online, I found a solution suggesting to disable Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations Maintenance mode .

To fix the issue, I ran the following query:

update SQLSYSTEMVARIABLES SET VALUE = 0 where PARM = 'CONFIGURATIONMODE'

Then, I restarted IIS.

After performing these steps, I was able to run the 'Microsoft Dynamics 365 Unified Operations: Batch Management Service' batch job successfully.
