Resolution:
Re-install the QlikView Distribution Service on this machine. This can be done by running the repair tool in the install package, or by renaming the Distribution Service folder in C:/ProgramData and starting the service
Check if a later version of QlikView has previously been installed on the machine, it is possible a different dll is mentioned in the registry.
