After activating the Microsoft Office Web Apps feature on the site collection:

this error was resolved and Microsoft Office Word online started to show, but with a new error:

Word Web App cannot open this document for viewing due to an unexpected error.  To view this document, open it in Microsoft Word.
Error Id: 557be21f-f14d-4c76-9be5-d07f2a04b8f9, 20100310083103

 

This was because you need some additional steps when installing Microsoft Office Web App on a DC, see:

But the error was not resolved:
