Looks like the pipe in the wall is unhelpfully sitting back, you need to find a way to pull it out enough and hold it in position while also trying to screw on the compression fitting.

You could do that by pulling it out and driving a short wood screw into the gap between the board and pipe, that should get some purchase and hold it in position or maybe even use two.
