I've just provisioned the App Management Service Application in my SP 2013 on-prem dev farm. However, the status says "Stopped" when I view the list of Service Applications.

enter image description here

The service instance is started, however.

When I check the service application in Powershell, it says "Disabled".

enter image description here

How can I get the service app and associated proxy to a "Started" status?

Thanks in advance!

The Disable status means the App service is not provisioned correctly, so try to provision it using PowerShell 

$srv = Get-SPServiceInstance | where-object {$_.TypeName -eq "App Management Service"}
$srv.Provision()
Get-SPServiceInstance | $srv #check its status

This issue might also occur if you have started the App Managment Service in Services on Server before creating the App Managment Service Application Service.

So in your case,

  • Stop the App Managment Service in Services on Server
  • Delete the newly configured App Managment Service Application Service
  • Reconfigure App Managment Service Application Service in Manage Service Application
  • Start the App Managment Service in Services on Server again.

  • Thanks, Mohamed. Unfortunately, when I attempt to stop the service, it gets stuck in a 'stopping' status. I've tried restarting the timer service and rebooting the server, but its still stubbornly stuck.

I was able to get this fixed by provisioning the App Management Service Application and App Management Service Application Proxy separately in PowerShell.

    Hello @drew, this is what exactly said to you in my answer for the first suggestion! "The Disable status means the App service is not provisioned correctly, so try to provision it using PowerShell

  • @MohamedEl-QassasMVP, I didn't mean to slight your answer at all. When I first tried your initial answer (and what ended up working for me), the service was still stuck in a 'Stopping' state. That also made me unable to try your second answer because I couldn't fully stop the service.

  • Once I deleted the timer job instance that was attempting to stop the service, I was able to restart it. Once the service was in a 'Started' state again, I was able to use a variation of your answer. But if you look at mine, I'm reprovisioning the Service Application and associated Proxy. Not the Service Instance itself. In any case, you definitely pointed me in the right direction, so I've marked your post as the answer. Cheers, -Drew
