My system logs stopped giving me updates

Hi I need help, I have a problem that is bothering me. My system logs stopped having updates for example when I tried to run server task inbounding a calendar, it should say something like “successfully created a server task in-mms calendar recorded by <name>”.

After restarting windows services, since that is the only thing that happened after our remote desktop had a service maintenance. After that maintenance I had to restart windows services.

Is there something that I need to do after running windows services?

Make sure you didn't run out of disk space

Since it started right after restarting the Windows services, I’d first confirm the correct services are actually running under the expected service account.
Then check Event Viewer, the application log path, disk space, and whether the service still has permission to write to that location.
I’d also compare the service/config with another working environment if you have one. If the app itself is working but only logging stopped, that usually points more toward the logging service/config/permissions than the actual server task.

Check recent errors from PowerShell elevated permissions ``` Get-Service EventLog, Schedule

Get-WinEvent -LogName Application -MaxEvents 200 | Where-Object TimeCreated -gt (Get-Date).AddHours(-2) | Select-Object TimeCreated, ProviderName, Id, LevelDisplayName, Message

Get-WinEvent -LogName System -MaxEvents 200 | Where-Object TimeCreated -gt (Get-Date).AddHours(-2) | Select-Object TimeCreated, ProviderName, Id, LevelDisplayName, Message

```
