Office web apps "Server error in '/wv' Application"

Hi, I successfully installed office web app for sharepoint 2013. However, when I tried to open documents, it shows the preview but once view/edit in browser, I got this error. What seems to be the problem?
Server error in '/wv' Application.
Unable to determine zone from request

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you encountered the error “Server error in '/wv' Application. Unable to determine zone from request” when you open document using Office Web Apps.
Are you using https:// to access the Office Web Apps server? Is the default zone of your web application in Alternate Access Mappings using http:// ?
If so, you can change the default zone
of your web application in Alternate Access Mappings to use https:// .
Or set AllowOAuthOverHttp to true:
$config = (Get-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig)
$config.AllowOAuthOverHttp = $true
$config.Update()

How to get error information back from Office Web Apps server?

I'm developing a web application with an embedded Word iframe that interfaces with an Office Web Apps server; I am trying to implement the MS-FSSHTTPB protocol for my WOPI server.
More details here. When I send a bad response back to the OWA server it stops making requests to the WOPI server and sends the following error message back to the browser client: "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document. If this
happens again, try opening the document in Microsoft Word."
Is there a way I can get additional information about what went wrong so that I can correct it?

Yes, this is closely related to SharePoint.
I'm trying to embed a Word editor in our web app. The Word iframe is served from the OWA server. It typically communicates with a SharePoint server to receive information about the document its trying to display.
I'm trying to implement the SharePoint portion. The servers communicate via the MS-FSSHTTPB protocol (among others) which I'm struggling to implement. When I send a response to the OWA server that it doesn't like then it stops replying. I'm wondering how
I can retrieve the exact error the occurred.
I believe I originally posted this question to Open Specifications > SharePoint Server Protocols.

Got errors when trying to open word document with Office Web App Server and customized WOPI host

I am configuring the Office Web App Server with our ASP.NET MVC WOPI host based on this example. https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/office/Building-an-Office-Web-f98650d6. While both the OWA server and WOPI server has been set up and I can use Excel and PowerPoint
app to open and edit xls and ppt file now, there are problems opening word documents no matter I enable or disable the editing function of OWA server.
When I open a word document while enabling editing I got this error:
If I disable editing I got this message:
I have tried several file so I thought it is not the files' problem. Also I didn't find any exception in the log of OWA server.

Hi Gary Jiang,
Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
This forum is for developers discussing issues about
apps for Office.
Based on the description, it seems that you got an issue when you deploy the code sample. If I understood clearly, I suggest that you contact the author of the code sample from the "Q and A" tab.
Also if you have the question about WOPI, I suggest that you get more effective response from
Office
Protocols forum.

How can i check the office web app server(wac client) is calling custom WOPI host?

I am getting an error when I testing my wopi host(which is the same as
example) with Office Web app server "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document. If this happens again, try opening the document in Microsoft Word."
1-how can find the log files of this error?
2-how can i check the office web app server(wac client) is calling my WOPI host?
I am not sure about cumunication between owa to wopi host. I actually dont know how to implement checkfile and getfile functions to wopi host for waiting for call back from owa client.
Note:I am sure that office web app server is configured true. Because i test it with sharepoint 2013 and editing and viewing is working well.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that
CheckFileInfo is how the WOPI application gets information about the file and the permissions a user has on the file. It should have a URL that looks like this:
HTTP://server/<...>/wopi*/files/<id>?access_token=<token>
While CheckFileInfo provides information about a file, GetFile returns the file itself. It should have a URL that looks like this:
HTTP://server/<...>/wopi*/files/<id>/contents?access_token=<token>
There is a great article for your reference.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/officedevdocs/archive/2013/03/20/introducing-wopi.aspx
You can also refer to the following article which is about building an Office Web Apps(OWA) WOPI Host.

Hopefully someone with a functional OWA server can help. When my users try to share a presentation, whiteboard, or poll as an external user or to an external user (coming through Edge), the content fails to share and this error occurs:
"We can't connect to the server for presenting right now"
The server functions internally fine and content shares perfectly. The OWA server has a certificate from an internal CA and it is published through a TMG reverse proxy. When I hit the discovery URL, it works fine and triggers the reverse proxy
rule. However, when I try to share content, it does not hit the rule.
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Looks like the external lync clients can't connect the office web app server. So please check if you publish the web office app to internet correctly.
Please refer this document about Publishing Office Web Apps Server Using a Reverse Proxy Server:

Office Web Apps Server - Access is denied

Hello,
I was able to create an Office Web Apps server and was able to create a new farm for that server all without any issues, everything works great.
Unfortunately right after creating the farm, when attempting to run any other related powershell commands such as:
Get-OfficeWebAppsFarm
Remove-OfficeWebAppsFarm
I get this error in powershell:
Get-OfficeWebAppsFarm : Access is denied.
At line:1 char:1
+ Get-OfficeWebAppsFarm
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Get-OfficeWebAppsFarm], SecurityAccessDeniedException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.ServiceModel.Security.SecurityAccessDeniedException,Microsoft.Office.Web.Apps.Adm
   inistration.GetFarmCommand
Although everything is actually working on the server, I'd like to be able to use those other commands in the future so I can check configurations, use "Remove" for running updates, etc... Unfortunately it appears as though this Access is
denied error may interfere with those activities.
Has anyone seen this before?
Thank you

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to run any other related powershell commands after creating the farm for Office Web Apps server.
If the account trying to get OfficeWebAppsFarm does not have local admin access on the machine you will simply get an “Access is denied”.
Please make sure you have the permission to run the commands.

Office Web Apps server / Lync server 2013

Hi I have installed a Lync 2013 Server and Office Web Apps Server. Configured Lync topology, Office Web Apps farm and certificates.
However when i start the services i get this error message in the log saying Office Web Apps discovery failed.
Event ID: 41033
Description:
Office Web Apps Server (WAC) discovery failed, PowerPoint content is disabled.
Attempted Office Web Apps Server discovery Url:
Received error message: Invalid Uri syntax for WAC configuration
The number of retries: 1,
Cause: Office Web Apps Server may be unavailable or network connectivity may have been compromised.
Resolution:
Check HTTPS connectivity from this box to the Office Web Apps Server deployment using the discovery Url.
I can access the OWAS server Url from Lync Server
Connecting to the HTTPS discovery URL is working fine, and brings up the XML-page (after i click "show all content").
The two servers are located on the same internal network, DNS resolves fine both ways, and no firewall rules blocks any connections between the two. Can anyone please help me figure this out?
Only identical problem found online is here (Invalid Uri syntax for WAC configuration):
http://blogs.technet.com/b/dodeitte/archive/2012/09/10/office-web-apps-server-amp-lync-server-2013.aspx
He resolved the problem by assigning a new OAuthTokenIssuer certificate. This however did not fix the problem in my case.
Regards
Sverre A. Veel

Hi,
In addition, please make sure you have restarted front end and office web apps server after reissuing the certificate.

Office web apps server (2013) certificate issue

If the name of the farm is different from the name of the individual office web apps server machine is there any way to deploy office web apps server with a single domain SSL certificate?
My office web apps server is working, but reporting itself unhealthy, apparently due to the fact that the SSL cert is for the name of the farm and that is different from the name of the machine.
Errors are 2004, 1004, 2156, 1156, "could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel"
Going to the farm's discovery URL in the browser works fine, but going to the machine name (plus /hosting/discovery) gives an SSL error because the name of the farm is not the same as the name of the machine.
Is there any way to make it use the farm's URL instead of the machine's URL in its own internal watchdog operations? Or any way to make it use a self signed certificate on the machine's URL for it's own health checks and still use the legitimate purchased
SSL cert for user access? Or any other way you can think of to use a $5.99/yr single domain certificate instead of a $89.99/yr multiple domain certificate?
Bill Coulter

I am experiencing this same issue. The OWA server has sp1 installed. In the OWA event logs I am getting health fails for 2 events and as best I can tell it seems to be related to this issue.
We are also using a single godaddy certificate with a non machine name FQDN. Both internal and external url's of the OWA farm are set to this same name.
The problem only seems to occur with the 'Proofing Watchdog' (See events below).
Has anyone got any update on whether this is supposed to be fixed ?

SharePoint 2013 Anonymous (public) site and Office Web Apps Server 2013 issue with download.aspx

Our organization has a public facing anonymous site in SharePoint 2013 which allows access to documents (docx) in a library. ViewFormsLockdown is activated as we present the documents via CQWP / custom template. We are combating the usual
issue of multiple login prompts when using Internet Explorer when a user accesses said document. We also have tried using the Word Viewer (view only mode) from Office Web Apps Server 2013 which works well, but ...
the problem stems from the fact that users can go the file menu from the word view and choose to download the document (which is what we want), unfortunately it looks like the link redirects via /_layouts/15/download.aspx which also presents a login
prompt. Much has been written out there about doing direct links for documents via /_layouts/download.aspx to address multiple login prompts when the document is opening in word (from IE).
I've tried nearly every combination of recommendations (disabling client integration, browser file handling (permissive/strict), ViewFormsLockdown feature, web.config modifications with options and propfind verbs and more) all to varying levels of success,
but never totally getting rid of the prompt. It has been stated that because the downloads.aspx inherits from Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.Download this will not allow anonymous access. We really want to use the word view from the Office
web app and have the file download functionality work from the menu there ... can anyone suggest an alternate fix? I might be wishing but will appreciate any guidance offered ...
cheers,
Dean

Office web apps Server for Sharepoint 2013

Hello,
I used the following article to install office web apps server and hook it up to a test sharepoint server:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219455(v=office.15).aspx. The OWAS service was verified as working by loading:
https://owas.companyname.com/hosting/discovery
For the sharepoint configuration phase, the following commands were run on the sharepoint machine:
1) New-SPWOPIBinding -ServerName "owas.companyname.com" -- (owas.companyname.com) is the host name of the owas server)
2) Get-SPWOPIZone
3) Set-SPWOPIZone -zone "external-https"
However, office documents are still launching in the desktop office applications, not in the browser. Any ideas of what else I may need to do?
thanks,
Sherazad

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you fail to configure Office Web Apps for your SharePoint 2013.
How about run Get-SPWOPIZone? If you can get a result, it says that your SharePoint have connected with Office Web Apps.
Then you can run below command to change the zone to internal-https.
Set-SPWOPIZone -zone "internal-https"

Using Office Web Apps Server 2013 without SharePoint, Lync, or Exchange

I'm trying to use the Office Web Apps Server 2013 as an online viewer of Office documents (using the Online Viewer). I've set up a New-OfficeWebAppsFarm with editing disabled, no UNC paths, and an external URL with SSL Offloaded to my Load balancer.
I don't want to use it with SharePoint, Lync or Exchange. Just use it to view documents online (similar to Google Docs Viewer).
However, when I point the Office Web Apps Server to a remote file online (e.x. a DOC hosted on a website), I get an error opening it.
I've checked the health statuses of my OWA Servers, and it says Healthy.
When I check the Event viewer of my OWA Server, I see 501 WOPI errors:
Could not contact WOPI End Point. Error details - 'NotImplemented url - https://sample-owa-url.com/oh/wopi/files/@/wFileId?wFileId=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eimr%2Esandia%2Egov%2Fimrtemplate%2Edoc&access_token=1&access_token_ttl=0'.
It seems OWA is trying to connect to the path /oh/wopi/files.... but the server is responding NotImplemented.
What do I have to get this to work?
Thanks for any help!

Did you ever find an answer? I have the exact same Issue.
I have 2 WAC servers behind a load balancer with SSL offloaded to the LB. Both servers report healthy with Get-OfficeWebAppsMachine
Works fine with SharePoint 2013.
When I use it with a remote file, served using HTTP with no authentication (anonymous), I get a generic "Sorry there was a problem and we can't open this document..." error.
In the ULS and event viewer, I see the WOPI error and 501 which basically says:
Could not contact WOPI End Point. Error details - 'NotImplemented url - https://sample-owa-url.com/oh/wopi/files/@/wFileId?wFileId=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Blah%2Ecom%2FWordDocument%2Edocx&access_token=1&access_token_ttl=0'.
I also sometimes see this:
<HealthMessage>WordViewerWfeWatchdog reported status for WebWordViewer in category 'WfeRedirect'. Reported status: /default.aspx returned a 404, which means that we didn't have where to redirect.</HealthMessage>
The very interesting part s that I have a dev server, with OWA (WAC) installed, thats not going through a LB and does not use SSL, that works just fine with the same public url word document.

Office web App Server Not Working Properly

Hello Everyone,
We have published Office Web Apps server externally through reverse proxy and it has some issues. Now if we browse the link
https://owas.schs.sharjah.ae/hosting/discovery (Internally) or
https://owa.schs.sharjah.ae/hosting/discovery (Externally) I get the XML Page.
Now when I try to browse any other pages in the directory for example
https://owa.schs.sharjah.ae/op/generate.aspx or another Url like
https://owa.schs.sharjah.ae/m/Presenter.aspx whether it is browsed internally and externally I get the error file not found '404' but the files do exist in the directory.
No idea on how to solve this issue, any help on this matter is really appreciated.
Regards,
Sheldon

What specific issue are you having?
Are you wanting to use the WAC to open files using the URL? If so, have you set OpenFromUrlEnabled to true? You can
check this using Get-OfficeWebAppsFarm cmdlet and Set-OfficeWebAppsFarm OpenFromUrlEnabled $true cmdlet.
I have several Office WebApp instances that I've deployed for Lync PowerPoint sharing where the setting is not enabled and I am also unable to browse to those pages, but PowerPoint sharing works fine.
