How to install SharePoint 2016? - sharepoint

I heard that SharePoint Server 2016 has been released.
How can I install new SharePoint server 2016?
does anyone has a reference?

SharePoint 2016 is only in technical preview at the moment. If you're determined you can download it from here. I would not deploy this on any production systems. This is purely for review and is not yet in a release state.

Migrate SharePoint 2007 to 2013

How to migrate SharePoint 2007 to 2013 with database and UI ? I am new in SharePoint. Actually I have two server in 1 server I have 2007 SharePoint which is on running and 2 have SharePoint 2013. Now I want to migrate all the content from 2007 to 2013 without changing the links in 2007.
You can refer to Microsoft's official documentation for upgrading to SharePoint 2013 here.
Specifically, you'll want to follow the instructions found under Advanced Upgrade Scenarios for SharePoint 2013 entitled Upgrade from Office SharePoint Server 2007 or Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 to SharePoint Server 2013 or SharePoint Foundation 2013
Here's the relevant excerpt:
You cannot upgrade directly from the server products in the Office 2007 release to SharePoint 2013. The changes between versions are too great, and the hardware requirements differ so much between versions that a direct upgrade is not possible or supported. However, you can perform a series of database-attach upgrades to first upgrade your content to SharePoint 2010 Products and then to SharePoint 2013. This article describes how to perform these sequential database-attach upgrades.
Process Overview
Because this upgrade approach combines two upgrade processes that are already documented in the TechNet library, this article describes how the steps from each process fit together into the overall process. It does not provide details for every step, because those steps are available in the following articles:
• Perform a database attach upgrade to SharePoint Server 2010 and Checklist for database attach upgrade (SharePoint Server 2010)
• Upgrade databases from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013 and Checklist for database-attach upgrade (SharePoint 2013)
These combinations of articles and this roadmap give you the information to perform the sequential database-attach upgrades.
The full instructions are available at https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee947141.aspx

SharePoint 2010 Upgrade to SharePoint 2013

I tried to upgrade SharePoint Foundation 2010 Fresh web application to SharePoint 2013.
I found out that upgrade will stuck at some point.
I can only see one error in error log.
But i already installed report server in SharePoint 2013 environment.
More info:
SharePoint 2010 Build version
SharePoint 2013 Build version
Even though I installed Report server after run the 'Test-SPContentDatabase' command throws following error.
You should first check if this is an issue in your 2010 environment. In central admin if you go to Review Problems and Solutions you can check to see if there are any "Missing server side dependencies". I tend to try and remove this in a non-production environment first, before moving it to 2013 just to be sure it doesn't cause any issues in prod. MissingFeatures are always a nuisance. This feature admin tool has worked for me in the past.
also look at this releases.

Configuring a standard single server TFS 2013 with SharePoint 2013 and SSRS for reporting

Is following scenario possible?
We have got TFS 2013 installed as a standard single server. This server has got the SQL db.
We have got SharePoint 2013 installed on another machine.
Now we want to integrate TFS 2013 with SharePoint 2013 along with SSRS and SSAS for reports, etc.
Please guide whether this is possible or we need to install TFS via Advanced mode again?
No problem, you can integrate your existing TFS single server deployment with your external SharePoint server assuming you have the necessary permissions.

Cheers
Adding SSRS and SSAS is relatively simple too and can be on the same server as TFS or a different one.

when i install TFS 2013, do I get a full blown sharepoint?

I've been looking around TFS 2013 screenshots and I notice how it look like it's implemented over Sharepoint 2013...
So, when i install TFS 2013, do I get a full blown sharepoint (with central admin and everything), just a site collection (a "light" version of it) or none (meaning if, i want a web interface, i have point to my sharepoint and say "use that one")???
PS: Since i'm in a corporate environment i don't have a spare machine to just install it and check it for myself, and other documentation don't make this clear...
TFS has its own web-based interface (TFS Web Access) that isn't based on SharePoint. It also has the ability to integrate with SharePoint which will cause SP-based Project Portals to be created with every Team Project (this is in addition to TFS Web Access).
When you install TFS you can choose to have the TFS Install install/configure SharePoint Foundation, or you can point it to a pre-existing SP Foundation or Enterprise environment.
SharePoint Foundation 2013 can be installed with TFS, if you specify that in the installation.

TFS 2010 with Project Server 2010

I've just tried out TFS 2010 today, along with Project 2010 and VS 2010. Only Later realized that without Sharepoint, TFS is only configured as Basic. This reduces it's functionality as oppose to what I've seen during VS2010 product launch. Sadly I can't find any alternative but to get a trial copy of Sharepoint to see if it serve my purpose. Well, apparently Sharepoint only comes with x64 edition. I'm not formatting any machine to x64 just to give this a try. So, after some reading up, I found that Project Server is actually based on Sharepoint. Now I wonder is whether TFS can be configure to connect to Project Server?
If it's possible, would the setting be much different that Sharepoint's?
And what am I missing from this setup as oppose to Sharepoint's?
Based on Sharepoint != Sharepoint. I think that Project Server is just a subset of Sharepoint functionality. Also, basing Project on Sharepoint allows for some really tight integration into your portal. To answer your question, I don't think you still will get your fully featured TFS without Sharepoint Proper.
FYI - Sharepoint 2007 (or 3.0 or whatever it is) is not x64 only, but will run on x86. TFS 2010 will go full feature on 2007
Sharepoint 2007 Trial
To answer what you are missing:
Reports
Project Portal
TFS Web Access
That's about it. You still get 90% of the features with your current deployment without SharePoint. Tommy is right about MOSS 2007, it comes in 32-bit and will give you all features. Project Server runs on top of SharePoint as a shared service provider. Traditionally MS releases a power toy to integrate TFS with Project Server. They said they would go over this at TechEd, which just happened about a week ago.
Also, I suspect the integration with Project Server 2010 will be better, but then you will have to run SharePoint 2010 :(
In my opinion, TFS has enough to run most projects by itself and you can use the client version of MS Project for critical path anaylsis, etc.
Use Windows Sharepoint Services for Windows 2003 & Windows 2008:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsserver/sharepoint/bb400747.aspx
For Windows Server 2008 sp2 and Windows Server R2, use SharePoint Foundation 2010:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=49c79a8a-4612-4e7d-a0b4-3bb429b46595&displaylang=en
Both are free.
I'm not formatting any machine to x64
just to give this a try.
Why not use VMWare Server, Hyper-V, Virtual Box or some other virtualization software to run the pre-made demo/trial/lab VHD's - no formatting, no installation, no setup, more hair.
