We use [https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=](https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=` "view.officeapps.live.com") in our website to view files.
We use this inside iframe like [https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=<followed](https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=<followed "view.officeapps.live.com") by of public doc urls[>](https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=` "view.officeapps.live.com")

We are using this past 3 years, but now there issues with this url

when we view files(specifically ppt) using this , it shows some internal error for pptx file.
For docx file, it sometimes get stuck in loading

Sample Urls:-
ppt - https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=http%3a%2f%2fvideo.ch9.ms%2fbuild%2f2011%2fslides%2fTOOL-532T_Sutter.pptx

docx - https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/embed.aspx?src=newteach.pbworks.com%2Ff%2Fele%2Bnewsletter.docxSteps to reproduces:-

  • open the urls in new tab, reload it for few times. it occurs 2 out of 5 times

Few more pointers

  • i checked this with clearing cookies
  • this is not specific this document, it is easily reproducible with other pptx or doc files
  • checked in multiple browsers & devices
  • checked in incognito as well

Error Message:-
Server Error in '/p' Application.
Runtime Error

Description:
An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details:
To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File --> <configuration> <system.web> <customErrors mode="Off"/> </system.web> </configuration>

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File --> <configuration> <system.web> <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/> </system.web> </configuration>
