I am using MikTeX, When I run the file, it does not update the pdf anymore. The console output ends with:

Sorry, but "C:\Users\SMRS.LUSTRUM\AppData\Local\Programs\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\texify.exe" did not succeed.

The log file hopefully contains the information to get MiKTeX going again:

  C:/Users/SMRS.LUSTRUM/AppData/Local/MiKTeX/2.9/miktex/log/texify.log

You may want to visit the MiKTeX project page, if you need help.

The Errors, Warnings, badboxes tab does not show any error.

Anyone had the same problem or knows a solution

    What does the content of C:/Users/SMRS.LUSTRUM/AppData/Local/MiKTeX/2.9/miktex/log/texify.log has to say? – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Sep 15 '16 at 12:24
  • texify (and pdftexify) is rather picky and often reports that something didn't work even if there wasn't really a problem. I never use it but always call pdflatex and the other tools I need directly. If you want a more automatic processing check arara. – Ulrike Fischer Sep 15 '16 at 12:43
  • I was using pdfLatex+MakeIndex+BibTeX and solved the problem with the answer from Guilherme Z. Santos. Thanks! – Simon Moreels Sep 15 '16 at 12:46

First of all, I think you should be using pdflatex. I belive this issue was approached in this question (MiKTeX won't typeset): Open the package manager (admin), use repositories -> synchronize, and then check if all packages starting with miktex are installed. Then open the update manager (admin) and check if there are updates.
