Hi Community,
Since two weeks I experience strange behaviour with the engine service of Qlik Sense. Qlik Sense april 2018 is installed on a Windows 2016 server and for monts it ran quit smoothly. Suddenly the engine service would not come up after weekly server reboot (other services start normal and all services are automatic delayed) and since yesterday the engine service also can just stop for no reason at all during uptime. I searched the internet and this community but allthough there are several topics regarding not starting engine services, no cause is mentioned.
Is there some one here who have an explanation and permanent solution (next to rebooting again, manually starting the service and frequently running the repair function) why only this engine service stops out of the blue and can not start up after reboot?
Thanks in advance and kind regards,
Aad Dijksman
Hi Aad,
We are experiencing similar issue too. We recently upgraded to April 2018 version and today the engine and Logging service stopped for no reason.
mto Is this a bug in the recent release?
Thank you!

Hi Guys - thanks for tagging me - in situations like this - posting in the community may help if someone else had experienced this and has a solution - as Sujeet has (but no solution) - I have not heard anything yet - however you can open a case with or without a support contract as a guest: here: https://qliksupport.force.com/QS_CoveoCaseWizard#t=All&sort=relevancy
They can help cases like this get resolved - if you do not hear anything - please reply to this thread and I will be notified and can escalate if needed.

Thanks and kind regards,

Our team is also experiencing this issue after reboots - the engine and logging services do not start up. I'm opening a case as well. Will post the response if received first.
Hi Folks, any news abou this case?
Hi everyone,
Sorry for the late reply. We did get the issue resolved using some advice from Qlik. The dependency part for the Logging service didn't work for us, but the method with the zip file (details below quoted message) did resolve the Engine issue and we're going to test it out to see if it will also work for the Logging service.
"I have picked up your case and will be working with you. Looking at your description this sounds like two issues we have experienced recently with Qlik Sense April 2018.
The zip file contained two files: a .bat and a .xml file. Their content is below because I cannot upload files.
startengineifdown.bat

)
)
