I need to executes different commands on different status of windows service.

example: (My windows service is OracleServiceXE)

if OracleServiceXE is RUNNING i want to execute command1

if OracleServiceXE is STOPPED i want to execute command2

i wrote below code for this. but it is not working properly. it executes commands in abc portion when OracleServiceXE is RUNNING

sc query "OracleServiceXE" | find /i "RUNNING"
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 then GOTO abc
IF ERRORLEVEL 4 then GOTO bcd
:abc
echo aa 
PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 6000>nul
goto :EOF
:bcd
echo bb 
PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 12000>nul

what is the wrong ?

    When searching with find, 0 is the return value when found, 1 is the return value when not found.
    You can check that with echo %errorlevel% after the find command.
    Also, if ... then is not cmd syntax (perhaps 4nt?).
    So, it could be written:

    sc query "OracleServiceXE" | find /i "RUNNING"
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO stopped
IF ERRORLEVEL 0 GOTO running

    Note also the order of IF ERRORLEVEL is important as IF ERRORLEVEL n means IF ERRORLEVEL >= n
