from a search on COMException (0x80010108) It could be related to the "Windows service control timeout" as seen mentioned at the bottom of our article here:

HI @jtj02080208,

You're receiving this error when you have a QVW open on the AccessPoint? Can you provide a screen capture of the error?

Best Regards

Windows service timeout

Start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).

To change the value data for the ServicesPipeTimeout DWORD value to 60000 in the Control key

Have you ever had problems with other services or QlikView when making changes?

Hello @jtj02080208 ,

There is also a similar post on The QlikView Engine isn't responding to close comm... - Qlik Community - 193540

Adjusting the following value helped on their case, and is worth to try in your case:

Seconds to wait before QVB Kill

The time the Distribution Service will wait for the document to close. If QlikView engine handles very large documents it might not respond, to prevent this, increase the value for the setting.
(Note: not in the exe.config by default in the 12.xx tracks and the unlisted default value is decreased to 16 seconds(QVII-170))

Location: Program Files\QlikView\Publisher\Distribution Service\QlikviewDistributionService.exe.config
Default: <add key="SecondsToWaitBeforeQVBKill" value="60"/>

Cheers!

How many values should I set?

Hello @qwebnm ,

What is the current value you have? But this might need to be tested, try and error methodology, to find the value that works better for your environment according to your documents.

Cheers!
