[ISS Support Case] Historian Server log not logging

Last updated: October 17th, 2025

Description

The Historian Server log is not getting any new entries (since 8/6). Yes, I've checked to see if I accidentally have a filter turned on, and I don't. This happened one previous time, and I can't remember the fix. I'm sure a reboot was involved somehow. I checked just now, and the ArchestrA Logger service IS running. Speaking of reboots, this log stopped updating just after the last reboot, just in case there is a tie-in there somewhere. You can reach me best via my work email. Thanks. (not sure I have the version of the Historian Server correct in the form above... where does one find this info?)
