The transaction log for database 'VIM_VCDB' is full

Over the weekend the VIM_VCDB database hit the 10gb SQL Express limit. We shrank the database down to just under 8GB and reduce the log database file down to 500mb. Now I'm seeing this errors in Event Log.

Event 9002:

The transaction log for database 'VIM_VCDB' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases

Then I get this

Event 1000:

Faulting application name: vpxd.exe, version: 5.0.0.29542, time stamp: 0x4f3e030b

Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 6.1.7601.18015, time stamp: 0x50b8479b

Exception code: 0xe06d7363

Fault offset: 0x0000000000009e5d

Faulting process id: 0x262c

Faulting application start time: 0x01ce50084f875506

Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\VirtualCenter Server\vpxd.exe

Faulting module path: C:\Windows\system32\KERNELBASE.dll

Report Id: dd1c355a-bcf2-11e2-a6ae-00505697516a

The errors cause the VCenter service to stop or restart. I don't see why this is happening since I've already shrank the database.
