I saw the below error when working with Office Web Apps 2013 and SharePoint 2013 in a two farm topology where OWA was installed on the Domain Controller and a separate machine ran SharePoint 2013 and SQL 2012. OWA here is running the October Cumulative Update hotfix KB 2825686 and SharePoint 2013 is also running the October Cumulative Update KB 2825647. Windows Updates were run and appear current.
The cause appears to be applying a patch to the “OWA farm” (not SharePoint farm). Re-creating the farm The PowerShell resolution steps I followed were:
- OWA machine
- Remove-OfficeWebAppsMachine
- review steps at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219455.aspx
- New-OfficeWebAppsFarm –InternalURL "http://SP15-AD" -AllowHttp -EditingEnabled
- browse IE to http://SP15-AD/hosting/discovery to confirm XML is viewable
- SP machine
- IISRESET
- test with IE again
