Additional information
Some Debugging steps I have carried out:
1: Restored my 'pre-update' snapshot back to 0.106.6 and cameras started working again.
2: Restored back to 0.107.1 and the issue arose again
3: Downloaded the onvif component from the 0.106.6 'tag' on github and placed it in my custom component folder on version 0.107.1, rebooted and all is well. Cameras working no problem.
My cameras are ptz cams but I have never tried to use the service from home assistant. This is probably irrelevant info but I did notice there was an issue with non ptz onvif cams previously.

Waiting on integrations to complete setup: onvif
I’ve started light debugging on the latest (0.108.1) version. For me it goes wrong on the
async_check_date_and_timefunction with the errorCan not write request body for http://<camera ip>:<camera port>/onvif/device_serviceIt almost seems like the camera does not like getting multiple requests on one variable or getting bombarded with requests, two new functions have been added when starting up,
obtain_mac_adressandobtain_snapshot_uriwhen i remove theobtain_mac_adressfunction it’ll finish theasync_check_date_and_timefunction. Running my own python script to collect onvif information being careful not to request things twice seems to get through all of the info.But if i run the same function twice it errors out on
Cannot write to closing transportand thenCan not write request bodyA work around in the meantime until this is fixed is to download the onvif component directory from the 0.106.6 version and place it in your
custom_componentsdirectory and restart home assistant. https://github.com/home-assistant/core/tree/0.106.6/homeassistant/components/onvifThis is what has got my cameras back up and running.
