Logstash service not reading application log file

I am using Logstash 7.4 in AWS EC2 (Amazon Linux 2)

following command works

#/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash -f /etc/logstash/conf.d/logstash.conf --debug // this is reading application log file

But
this command is not reading application log file but only starts logstash

#initctl start logstash // this is not reading application log file but only starts logstash

My logstash.conf file

input {
  file {
    path => "/home/ec2-user/xxxx/testservice.log"
    start_position => "beginning"
    sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
  }
}




output {
   stdout { codec => rubydebug }
}

what is the issue ? how to fix it ?
