logging_collector (boolean)
This parameter captures plain and CSV-format log messages sent to stderr
and redirects them into log files. This approach is often more useful
than logging to syslog, since some types of messages might not appear in
syslog output (a common example is dynamic-linker failure messages).
This parameter can only be set at server start.
Would seem something changed the config file to turn off the collector.
You will need to set on and restart.
