I am probably over thinking this but I have a server that seems to be logging other events fine but the security log has only one entry. If I clear the log, as if it were corrupted, one entry shows up and nothing more after. I went through the local policy and didn't seem to have any issues there. Any thoughts, let me know. Thanks in advance.

Security Event Log not logging correctly
- Thread starter helpme2pc
- Start date
try recreating the evt file entirely. clearing the logs DOES NOT fix a corrupt event log. The entire evt must be recreated. I don't even think thats supportable y MS either believe it or not (I wrote the internal article that still exists on how to do exactly this).
