AX 2012 R3 + Windows Server 2016 - compatible soon?

Hi,

I am aware that AX 2012 R3 is not currently supported with Windows Server 2016.

Is there any timeline as to when this may happen?

Thanks!

    It usually takes a few months for In-Market Engineering, aka Sustained Engineering, to complete the testing for new versions of Windows Server, SQL Server, Office, and other products.  I expect we'll see the results of that testing any time now based on historical performance.

    I have tried to install AX 2012 R3 on Windows Server 2016, knowing that it is not officially supported! AOS and client works (it's only a test-machine, not fully tested). During installation of reporting server extensions, AX setup crashed. After manually configuration of reporting server config files, I can open reports now. Visual Studio Tools cannot be installed, because you need Visual Studio 2013 which is neither compatible to Windows 2016 nor to Windows 10.

    I guess this will take a longer time to make AX 2012 R3 compatible to Windows Server 2016/Windows 10.

    Hi Felix,

    I have tried also AX client & AOS installed successfully. But as Mr. Peter has mentioned other components are not compatible.

    We have to wait for it.

    Regards,

    I installed AX 2012 R3 CU12 in Windows server 2016 with SQL 2016 (Supported only in CU12).

    Every thing is working fine and I also installed Retail components with POS which are working fine too.

    Only i faced errors in installing SharePoint foundation 2013 due to .Net framework 4.6 which is also solved by following Microsoft Link (Hotfix).
