An unexpected error has occurred on WordViewer.aspx
Hi,
I just upgraded to SharePoint 2013. When I search and try to open word documents from search result page it doesnt open document in word installed on client but try to open in browser (in WordViewer.aspx) but the WordViewer.aspx gives an exception
"An unexpected error has occurred". When looking at the log it says
"Application error when access /_layouts/WordViewer.aspx, Error=The file '/_layouts/WordViewer.aspx' does not exist"
How can i fix this. I dont want documents to open in wordviewer

Can you confirm through the List/Library settings through the browser that it is set to open in client? Make sure you looking at the list/library settings where your particular file lives.

couple of more things.
try this one to disable the OWA( editing the xml file)
if above fixed the issue fine, otherwise close all browser session and tried again or reset IIS on the servers as well.
