ULS is giving below two error,

It looks like you are missing WCF Data Services 5.0 for OData V3. Install it from here and reset IIS (may have to restart your machine):

I have seen this happening on dev machines having both Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 running side-by-side, and then uninstalling VS 2012 and related components.
