Office Web Apps 2013 not loading Power Point

I installed Office Web Apps (2013) patched on a 2012 R2 server and I am having issues loading a power point onto the stage in a conference. It says "Loading..." for a few minutes and then eventually says "Either you've lost network connectivity
or our server is too busy to handle your request. Please check your network connection and try again later."   Se the error below

For this issue, verify the
Office web Apps configuration and check below link {it's same issue}

  • Office Web Apps 2013 - Word app not working on Sharepoint 2013 but Excel does

    Hi there!
    We had some problems with Office Web Apps 2013 not working with Lync, and the status of OWA was unhealty so we decided to install some updates for OWA.
    We have downloaded November 2013 update for OWA.
    We found out a guide for putting updates on OWA and done this steps:
    * Remove-OfficeWebAppsMachine
    * Installed the november update
    * Restarted OWA server
    * ran: New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalUrl https://owasrv.domain.local -ExternalURL
    https://owasrv.domain.local -CertificateName "certname" -AllowHttp  -EditingEnabled
    * Restart-Service WACSM
    - checked in IIS in the bindings if the site useses the correct certificate
    Then we went on Sharepoint 2013 and ran some commands:
    * Remove-SPWOPIBinding –All:$true
    * New-SPWOPIBinding -ServerName owasrv.domain.local
    * Set-SPWOPIZone –zone “external-https”
    Now here are the funny things:
    * Excel word app on Sharepoint 2013 works
    * Word APP not working (screenshot)
    * Lync 2013 powerpoint still not working (screenshot)
    * status of OWA is healthy

    Hi,
    The Friendly name field must be unique within the Trusted Root Certificate Authorities store.  In -CertificateName, enter the friendly name you gave your
    certificate earlier.
    Validate the configuration by navigating to the discovery URL of the Office Web Apps server.  Like
    https://xxx/hosting/discovery
    Meanwhile, the issue is related to Lync, I recommend to you to post the question on Lync Server for further discussion via the link below.

  • OWA 2013: Load unsafe script in Google Chrome when attempting to launch Edit in Office Web Apps 2013

    Team
    As we have On-Premises SharePoint 2013 and Office Web Apps 2013 server. SharePoint site is running over https and office web apps running over http. Everything seems to be correct and able to view documents in browser.
    Once we tried to edit the document in browser (Chrome/IE and Firefox) we getting the pop up "Load unsafe script " in Chrome Firefox and in IE with "This page includes script from unauthenticated sources" 
    Please help me on this i tried to disable pop-up in chrome/IE/Firefox but did not get success in Chrome/Firefox and we can't do this on each and every machine.
    Thanks Ranveer Katiyar

    Use fiddler to analyse what is causing this issue. You can share traces with me as well.
    It might some compatibility issue with browser
    It may also be issue because you are trying to execute a HTTPS content in a HTTP online editing tool.

  • Office Web Apps 2013 + could not establish trust relationship

    We currently have a three tier SharePoint 2013 Farm:
    1. Web Front End Server (Server 2008 R2 Enterprise) - Servername: TEST2SP013.domain.dom
    2. Central Admin Server (Server 2008 R2 Enterprise) - Servername: TEST2SPCA013.domain.dom
    3. SQL Server (Server 2012 Datacenter) - Servername: TESTSQL012.domain.dom
    All Machines are in the same IP/Subnet.
    We are trying to setup a new server (Server 2012 R2 Datacenter) (Servername: TEST022.domain.dom) to run Office Web Apps 2013 in our TEST environment to test the system before rolling in production and have had issues throughout the entire process.
    The technet articles we have used are:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219435.aspx
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219627.aspx
    We finally have what I thought was a correct setup but anytime we try to edit or view a word, excel, powerpoint document within SharePoint 2013, we receive "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document. If this happens again, try opening
    the document in Microsoft Word."
    We found a few How-To Setup Office Web Apps sites where other people provided step-by step instructions:

    None of the article provide specific step-by-step instructions with using HTTPS in a test environment specifically when it comes to Self-Signed Certs through Active Directory Certificate Services.
    We tried creating a Self-Signed Cert through IIS on the Office Web Apps Box which did not work.
    We tried creating a Cert through Active Directory Certificate Services which did not work.
    We tried adding the Cert through Central Admin > Security > Manage Trust which did not help.
    We verified "get-spwopizone" is set to internal-https
    We can access the Web Apps https://test022/hosting/discovery site and view the XML with no issue on any machine on our network.
    We added our domain to the list of approved domains that can use Office Web Apps as well as add "Domain Users" as the security group that can "EDIT" Office Documents through Office Web Apps. 
    After each step, we tried performing either a system reboot or IIS Reset on the Office Web Appcs and WFE box.
    My Question is how do we generate a certificate (either self-signed through IIS on the Office Web Apps Box or through AD) that will allow this application to work? I read that the Fully Qualified Domain Name needs to be in the SAN field of the Cert but when
    we request it, I have no way of entering this information. I tried following http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff625722 to manually request a certificate with a Custom SAN but that did not work either.
    I am assuming the certificate issue is with the New Office Web Apps box. Is this correct?
    -Chris

    If internal cert then you will have to add certificate from OWA to tursted certificates in each sharepoint server plus add the certificate from central admin in Sharepoint through manage trust. Also you will need to install p7b file (file that contains
    path to root certificate to verify each intermediate certificate) for internal cert to each sharepoint server to not get certificate error.

  • Office Web Apps - "Could not find trace string in ULS logs" unhealthy?

    I have reviewed everything I could find on unhealthy WAC clusters as my problem seems unrelated to certificate or missing components.  I've already digested
    http://www.wictorwilen.se/office-web-apps-server-2013---machines-are-always-reported-as-unhealthy (Thanks Wictor).
    The particular configuration is an Office Web Apps 2013 ([X-OfficeVersion, 15.0.4551.1005]), running on top of Windows Server 2012, configured for http access (SSL offloaded NLB cluster) and finally linked to Exchange 2013, Lync 2013 and SharePoint
    2013.  Everything works as expected from client side after setting IIS ARR to handle all reverse proxy bits.

    I suspect these might be related, but can't seem to find any logical explanation why this should cause the Get-OfficeWebAppsMachine to report HealthStatus of Unhealthy.  If related, is there a way to disable this check or remove throttling in a safe
    way?  Alternatively if this is some coding issue (I've not found any other blog/QA dealing with this particularly) it would be nice to get confirmation of this and potentially a fix/solution.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Hi ChristiaanB,
    You get this ULS error because you change the log verbosity of the OWA farm. I wrote an article for this on my blog : OWA unhealthy uls issue

  • Office Web Apps 2013 Error 500

    Below I configured Office Web Apps 2013, on 2 servers,
    SharePoint 2013 SP1 Enterprise Edition August 2014 CU on Microsoft Windows Server 2013 R1
    SP2013ServerWFE-AppServer
    Office Web Apps 2013 August 2014 CU on Microsoft Windows Server 2013 R1
    OFFICEWEBAPP2013SERVER
    After my install, I can see that the preview displayes for the site I am on I am NOT logged on as the System Account or Site Collection Admin, just a user.
    I then try to display the file below it and this is where I get the error 500
    This error (HTTP 500 Internal Server Error) means that the website you are visiting had a server problem which prevented  the webpage from displaying.
    The website cannot display the page
    These are the steps that I have just taken to try to enable this process.
    I went to SP2013ServerWFE-AppServer – SharePoint 2013 Server
    SharePoint 2013 Management Shell as Admin
    Remove-SPWOPIBinding –All:$true
    Went to OFFICEWEBAPP2013SERVER – Office Web Apps 2013 server.
    PowerShell, as Admin.
    New-OfficeWebAppsFarm –Verbose –InternalUrl "http://SP2013ServerWFE-AppServer" -ExternalUrl "http://SP2013ServerWFE-AppServer" -AllowHTTP –EditingEnabled
    –ClipartEnabled -AllowCEIP
    On the OFFICEWEBAPP2013SERVER server, open up IE
    NETBIOS
    http://OFFICEWEBAPP2013SERVER/hosting/discovery
    FQDN
    http://OFFICEWEBAPP2013SERVER.COMPANY.DOMAIN.local/hosting/discovery
    Both worked!
    Go to SP2013ServerWFE-AppServer – SharePoint 2013 Server
    New-SPWOPIBinding -ServerName OFFICEWEBAPP2013SERVER –AllowHTTP
    Worked, ran:
    Get-SPWOPIZone
    Set already but if needed to, could have changed, kept it as was below.
    Set-SPWOPIZone -zone "Internal-http"
     Now I get the error.  Am I missing something? 

    Get-OfficeWebAppsMachine
    MasterMachineName             MachineName                   Roles                                         
    HealthStatus
    2013OWAOFFWA01                 2013OWAOFFWA01                 {All}                                            
    Unhealthy
    It shows unhealthy, thanks to your having me check.
    I just went and did Remove-OfficeWebAppsMachine and
    Remove-SPWOPIBinding –All:$true and then tried what I have in my original post.  Not sure why it is saying unhealthy!
    Excel Calculation Services is running, I know that that will cause an issue with Excel Services and Excel Web Apps.  Testing with Word Documents, and or putting in SharePoint to get to the main page, to see an image rendition in search.
    I went to open a word document as search gave me an error message, so I thought I'd try, but I didn't see it in office web apps ULS but on SharePoint 2013

    PDF does not open in browser.
    The updates in January were installed automatically.
    Is that maybe the problem?
    I have seen this:
    http://www.wictorwilen.se/sharepoint-2013-enabling-pdf-previews-with-office-web-apps-2013-march-2013-update

    Is it not working only for PDF files? I only used the zone external-https as an example so please confirm that you set the right binding. After all applications have the correct binding you need to create a result type for PDFs:
    Site Settings > (Search) Result Types and then finding the PDF Result Type. Choose to Copy the Result Type.
    Give the new Result Type an appropriate name, “PDF with Preview” for instance. Then scroll down to Actions and in the “What
    should these results look like?” drop-down, choose to use the Word Display Template.

  • Office Web Apps 2013 with SharePoint 2013 Server

    Hi All,
    I have installed a separate server for Office Web Apps 2013 on Windows Server 2012 VM. I have followed TechNet's article on
    Deploying Office Web Apps Server & exactly followed steps.
    On SharePoint Server 2013 (Windows Server 2012), I followed TechNet’s article on
    Configure Office Web Apps for SharePoint. The Office Web Apps on SharePoint 2013 environment works for
    Excel document that shows “View in Browser” but
    no Preview.
    However, PowerPoint and Word documents doesn’t show “View in Browser”. I thought Internet Explorer 10 has some issue with Office Web Apps and checked on Chrome and results were same.
    On SharePoint Server 2013 environment, I have configured 3 services applications, MMS, UPS and Excel Service. 
    1.) Do I need any other service applications to be enabled for OWA 2013?      
    I read number of blogs,
    Installing Office Web Apps Server for SharePoint 2013 (Steve Mann),
    Install Office Web Apps 2013 with SharePoint 2013 (Max Melcher) and Spence Harbar
    (Enabling Office Web Apps Preview editing with SharePoint 2013). and all these blogs give more or less same steps that I have followed.  
    Strange thing is that Excel documents on my SharePoint 2013 sites are working but neither word or PowerPoint documents are not showing option for “View in Browser”. 
    I am using HTTP and not HTTPS.
    2. Can someone please advice how could I solve the Office Web Apps 2010 on Word and PPT?
    3. How to can enable preview for Excel, Word and PPT documents.
    Thanks you.

    Hi Inderjeet and Olafur,
    Thanks for your reply.
    @Inderjeet: That site collection feature on SP2010 works on our production environment but on SP2013 site collection there is no OWA feature. Microsoft recommends to have a separate OWA2013 server and what I create
    a separate VM for OWA2013 server.
    @Olafur: Your suggestion looks spot on. The OWA server does show the discovery:
    Our SP2013 development server has limited RAM (4GB) and it think is causing the issue.
    Let me check if increasing RAM solves the issue.
    Thanks again for your suggestions. (Interjeet and Olafur).

  • Office Web Apps 2013 - Excel, fine, Word & Powerpoint, unable to view.

    Hi All,
    I am having an infuriating issue where by the following occurs when opening documents via OWA:
    Excel - Preview, no problem, opening, no problem, editing, no problem (even when accessing oData connections for PWA).
    Word - Preview, errors, opening, errors, editing (incredibly!!) works.
    PowerPoint - Nothing works...
    I think I have read every blog post on every error I am receiving in the ULS but nothing is resolving. It is on a VMware VM and I had to reinstall OWA after it was noted that it has rather surprising behaviour if OWA is not installed on the system drive.
    I have installed each hotfix/update and tested after each with no joy...
    Three (possibly misleading) error categories:
    From OWA log:
    Cannot create WOPI Proof Token - could not find valid old proof key;
    From SP log:
    WOPI Proof: Missing Header;
    Useragent not available, file operations may not be optimized (doubt this is causing my problem but the quality of errors in the logs is so bad it may well be).
    For context, the service account for OWA is local admin on the box and has full access to the content databases on the SQL server.
    The symptoms of the error are the biggest concern given the degrees of success I am having with the different apps (kind of rules out security or setup if Excel works fine and Word sort of works).
    Any help will be very much appreciated and may stop my increasing baldness with the amount of hair I am pulling out!!
    Thanks in advance.
    Sam

    Hi  Sam,
    According to your description, my understanding is that Office Web Apps does not work for viewing Word & PowerPoint.
    For troubleshooting your issue, please access the Office Web Apps Server discovery URL to verify that the Office Web Apps Server farm is working for Word & PowerPoint:
    http://servername/hosting/discovery
    Also please add the OWA url into your “Trusted Sites” in IE.

  • Office Web Apps 2013

    I've got a brand new Exchange 2013 CU2 farm set up, 2 CAS servers and 2 mailbox servers in a DAG and I'm trying to add an Office Web Apps 2013 server into the mix. First, can someone give me a reason why we would want or need an Office Web Apps server, if
    all that's integrating with it is Exchange? From what I've read, it only offers Office document previews, but it appears to already have that functionality. Does it offer editing capability?
    Second, I've followed all the guides I can find on integrating OWA (there has to be a better acronym for this) and Exchange, but I'm still getting errors when I try to preview an attachment.
    For Word, it says "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document." For Excel, it gives an ASP-style error that says "Server Error in '/x' Application" behind the words "Excel Web App" and a continuous progress bar.
    For Powerpoint, it says "Sorry, we couldn't open this presentation because we ran into a problem."
    I've tried building a new OWA server, running 2012 R2 and all the updates, and the only commands I've run on the OWA server are "New-OfficeWebAppsFarm", giving the internal URL, the external URL, enabling editing, and giving the friendly name of
    the certificate (which is a valid cert). On the Exchange side, I've run "Set-OrganizationConfig -WACDiscoveryEndpoint 'https://fqdn-of-owa-server'" and "Set-OwaVirtualDirectory -WacViewingOnPublicComputersEnabled $true -WacViewingOnPrivateComputersEnabled
    $true -ForceWacViewingFirstOnPublicComputers $true -ForceWacViewingFirstOnPrivateComputers $true" for both CAS servers.
    I've also tried it from different browsers, and added the OWA URL to the Trusted Sites in IE10 and IE11, but no dice.
    Am I missing something? Even if I get the integration to work, what benefit does it give me?

    Hi,
    Office Web Apps Server Integration
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150495(v=exchg.150).aspx
    Recreated Office Web Apps farm and WOPI Bindings on SharePoint as follows:
    ===================
    Remove-OfficeWebAppsMachine 
    New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalUrl "xxxx" –AllowHttp
    Set-OfficeWebAppsFarm -EditingEnabled:$true
    Get-OfficeWebAppsFarm
    Get-OfficeWebAppsHost -> „allowList“ war empty
    New-OfficeWebAppsHost –domain „xxxx“ to add the domain in the allowList
    Thanks,

  • Office web app 2013 file not found

    Hi,
    Trying to access a document preview from sharepoint 2013 i get "file not found" from the office web app server.
    In the OWA server uls logs I can see a messege "disk cache file not found" so i looked at the cachelocation and the renderinglocalcachlocation
    directories and i can only find the doc preview files in the renderinglocalcachlocation dir.
    I also made sure the identity of openfromurlhost and openfromurlweb application pools have access to this documend and i
    run the openfromurlenable command.
    any ideas ?
    thanks.

    Hi,
    Try the following:

    2-adding OWA
    url to the "Trusted Sites".
    3-Make sure you have followed the instructions for OWA installation configurations

  • Office Web Apps 2013: SSLOffLoad, Cannot connect Sharepoint.

    Hi,
    Background.
    We have a 2 machine SharePoint 2013 farm and a 2 machine Office Web Apps Farm, both of which are behind a load balancer. Our public DNS holds the records for the two farms: webapps.company.com and sharepoint.company.com. However these domains are not in
    the internal DNS and cannot be resolved internally. I've put these in the hosts file on the respective machines, so they can talk to each other.
    I'm now at the point where I need to connect SharePoint to the OWA farm. I've followed the guide here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219455%28v=office.15%29.aspx
    and setup the OWA farm by the specification under the heading "Deploy a multi-server, load balanced, office web apps server farm that uses HTTPS".
    My creation string
    New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalUrl https://machinename.domain.com -ExternalUrl https://webapps.comapny.com -SSLOffloaded -EditingEnabled
    That went ok and the farm is created. I then added the second machine
    New-OfficeWebAppsMachine -MachineToJoin "machinename.domain.com"
    Now that the farm is created i went ahead and ran
    New-SPWOPIBinding -ServerName machinename.company.com
    But that just gave me "WARNING: The Server did not respond. Trying again"
    Adding the -AllowHttp flag let me continue, but that ended up giving me error when i created or opened a document in Sharepoint.
    So my guess is that i need to figure out why i cannot use New-SPWOPIBinding -ServerName machinename.company.com without -AllowHTTP.
    It was my understanding that we don't have to setup SSL on the individual farm server as the load balanser woudl take care of that.
    Any ideas as to why New-SPWOPIBinding -ServerName machinename.company.com won't work?
    Thank you for taking the time to read my post
    Regards.

    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/19039.sharepoint-2013-how-to-enable-office-web-apps-to-work-in-both-internal-and-external-environments.aspx
     Because I’ve not configured my OWA machine to be published to the Internet so I have to use its Internet-public IP. It’s not a recommended best practice. In your case, the external URL would be http://owa.abc.com
    . Above I’m not using SSL certificate
    to encrypt data over the Internet. Just add CertificateName parameter if you want to use whether CA-issued certificate
    or self-signed certificate. Finally, check both internal URL (http://app03/hosting/discovery
    ) and external URL (http://198.xxx.xxx.xxx/hosting/discovery
    ) to confirm everything is working
    well. Your screen should display XML structure.
    Now you need to re-bind all SharePoint machines to WAC farm using New-SPWOPIBinding (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219441.aspx
    ). Next, you just need to set the WOPI
    zone for external use even there is an internal use in your SharePoint environment.
    1
    Set-SPWOPIZone –zone “external-http”
    Finally, configure Excel service and then upload an Excel workbook into a document library and check it. Below are the screenshots of OWA working on both internal and external environment.

  • Office Web Apps - Preview not appearing when acccessing via HTTPS

    I have installed Sharepoint 2013 and Office Web Apps, set the wopibinding, and set the wopizone to be https-external. Everything seems to work fine if accessing the web app using HTTP (can open, edit, preview office web app (WAC) documents)... but if
    I access via HTTPS then I run into a mixed content error when trying to preview the WAC documents... I can open them and edit them without issue using office web apps inside the browser though just not preview.
    If I select "New document" it also takes a while to load and displays a blank pop up window... assume it must be related
    Error message:
    XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://xxxx.org.nz/Docs/_layouts/15/inplview.aspx?List={6E…65723B96E}&ViewCount=1&IsXslView=TRUE&IsCSR=TRUE&IsRibbon=TRUE&Cmd=EcbView.
    No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'https://xxxxxx' is therefore not allowed access.
    [blocked] The page at 'https://xxxxx.org.nz/xx.aspx' was loaded over HTTPS, but ran insecure content from 'http://xxxxxx/Docs/_layouts/15/WopiFrame.aspx?sourced…%20big%20wide%20inter%20web%2Edocx&action=interactivepreview&wdSmallView=1':
    this content should also be loaded over HTTPS.

    Hi  ,
    Before you configure SharePoint 2013 to use Office Web Apps Server via HTTPS, make sure that you have set up Office Web Apps Server by following the steps in Deploy
    a single-server Office Web Apps Server farm that uses HTTPS or Deploy a multi-server, load-balanced Office Web Apps Server farm
    that uses HTTPS.

    Hi Waqas
    Thanks for your help with this. I had a look at both posts, the URL works fine from the WAC server and I am not using a System account to test docs.
    Also, this is a production site that is accessible over the Internet, so we are using https therefore the WOPIZone is external-https.
    Issue #3 in the above blog link does not reflect the same error I see on my servers.
    I also had a look at the information in this link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx#oauth
    Problem: You receive a "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document" error when you try to view an Office document in Office Web Apps.
    If you added domains to the Allow List by using the
    New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet, make sure you’re accessing Office Web Apps from a host domain that’s in the Allow List. To view the host domains in the Allow List, on the Office Web Apps Server open the Windows PowerShell prompt as an administrator and run
    the Get-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet. To add a domain to the Allow List, use the
    New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet.
    I have not added any domains to the Allow list so this did not help either. Should I add the domain?
    Any further help with this is much appreciated.
    Thanks again.
