SharePoint 2016 CU – KB articles describing the CU:

  • KB 5002231 – July 2022 Update for SharePoint Server 2016 (language independent)
  • No new language-dependent package was released for this CU. Use the latest available language CU: KB 5002118 (January 2022 CU).

SharePoint Server 2016 CU – CU download links:

After installation, remember to run the SharePoint 2016 Products Configuration Wizard or the following command:

PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures -cmd secureresources -cmd services -install

Important notes

Always install both packages in this order:

  1. language independent components (core CU for this release)
  2. language-dependent components (latest available language CU: KB 5002118, January 2022 CU)

For language-dependent packages, the language you select does not matter because each package contains updates for all languages.

If you install a new language pack on a SharePoint Server 2016 farm, you must reinstall the language-dependent update afterwards.

Remember to keep Distributed Cache updated as well as SharePoint. See How to update Distributed Cache correctly (in Czech).

Note for this CU:

SharePoint Enterprise Server 2016 must already be installed. This update is distributed for manual download and installation only; a computer restart is not required.

Included fixes and improvements

The following overview summarizes the fixes and improvements in this CU based on the official Microsoft KB articles.

SharePoint Server 2016

The language-independent package KB 5002231 includes this SharePoint fix:

  • Fixes an issue where a sandbox solution or web part fails with “Type was not resolvable”. The sandbox service tightened its default restrictions on types and assemblies in May 2022. The July 2022 update allows third-party types or assemblies to be registered for execution. Follow KB5015556 and the steps below.

    To register the affected sandbox components on SharePoint Enterprise Server 2016, first install the July 2022 update or later and reproduce the failure. In the ULS log, locate event 6K389 and note the blocked types and assemblies. Open the web application’s web.config, typically under C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\<web application port>. Add AllowedListItems under configuration/SharePoint/SafeMode, then add entries for the required types or assemblies using the recorded values in place of the placeholders:

    <AllowedItem Name="AllowedSandboxType" Type="XXXXX"/>
<AllowedItem Name="AllowedSandboxType" Assembly="YYYYY"/>
