    Hi @mohammadmojtaba sohrabi

    Could you please provide a screenshot of the detailed error message?

    Based on your description, I have some questions as below.

    Does this error occur on specific or all Word documents?

    Do other Office Online applications like Excel Online files have similar issue?

    You may go to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OfficeWebApps\Data\Logs\ULS to check the logs.

    > when i want to preview the word doc

    << Is this Word document an attached file (maybe of Outlook Web Apps)?
    If so, as said in this article, "If you are facing such type of issue, assign Private or Public certificate to your Exchange server and distribute same certificate to the client on which you are going to open the attachment of Word on OWA. This is suppressing any error like this by Establishing trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel."
    You could have a try.
