AEM Forms 6.5 on JEE - supported platforms?

[JanPrikryl]

Hello,

I would like to ask regarding the supported platforms for AEM Forms 6.5 on JEE.

Our client would like to deploy the AEM Forms on Windows Server 2022 and use Windows Office 2021 for the PDF generator, but these versions are not stated on the page of the Supported platforms for AEM Forms 6.5. 

Are you aware of any  incompatibility issues of the AEM Forms 6.5 with these newer versions or was it not simply tested yet with these newer versions?

Hello,

As of now, the PDFG is not tested on Windows 2022.

Kind Regards
Anant

Currently, neither Windows server 2022 nor MS Office 2021 is supported with the latest product version.

We have feature pack requests raised for both, but the Windows Server upgrade is a major upgrade, and we plan to do that with our major milestone release (every 6 SPs).

More context here: Currently, Windows Server 2019 has Extended support till Jan 2024 [0]. And Windows Server 2022 isn’t compatible with either JBOSS 7.4 [1], WAS [2], or Weblogic [3]

The last Full installer we had was 6.5.12.0; the next will be SP 6.5.18. (Sept 2023).

You can follow up here or raise a support ticket sometime next year to get the latest updates on the two enhancements.
