Issue - BI content server(11.1.1.1) not starting in obiee 11g:

Question

Hello All,
BI content server(11.1.1.1) is not starting in obiee 11g after making OBIEE 11g services as windows service.
Services are starting when we do a Start BI Services from All Programs >> OBIEE. On the contrary, when we start from windows service "bi content server(11.1.1.1) not starting in obiee 11g" is not starting.
Can someone help me on this. In case if you need any more info, please let me know.
Thank you,
Bimal

Below is the BI Script I used. Everything is in this script so no need to edit the installsvc file. Just edit the location/variables used as well as at the bottom change the name of the script and the log location. The BI_ORACLE_HOME variable needs to be set in the script.
SETLOCAL
