Hi, GeoServer and GDAL are under continuous development/improvement so each release series of GeoServer has some requirements in terms of which GDAL version need to be used. This is usually reported in the documentation unless there are typos or some sections don't get updated properly during updates. In your case, since you are using 2.16, you need GDAL 2.x as reported here: https://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/data/raster/gdal.html#installing-gdal-native-libraries
I would use 2.2.x or 2.4.x since these are the versions being reported in the doc as tested. The GDAL 1.9.2 version's thread you have seen was probably related to a previous GeoServer version and it won't work on your case. As as you said, there are so many versions in GIS internals page. That is due to the fact that there is a first distinction between 32 bit and 64 bit architecture, plus the different availability of CRT (C RunTime libraries) dependencies on your Windows system. I have no familiarity with the Windows Server 2016 installation so you may need to test a few of them, finding the right one (this depends on which CRTs are on your system). I just did a test on my Windows 10 64 using *release-1911-x64-gdal-2-4-2 (**MSVC 2017)* compiled binaries in a single zipped package and it worked. The key point to have it working is having the GDAL binaries and the related JNI (the libs needed to have the Java code "invoke" the C libraries) being referred by the PATH environment variable and some Windows version requries the java.library.path JAVA option too. Checking your log, I have noticed that no GDAL path is reported in the java.library.path section. So, on your setenv.bat tomcat script or the one you usually edit, you need to update PATH and JAVA_OPTS variables with something like below. (I give you my example so you can do a comparison): SET JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.library.path=C:\work\programs\release-1911-x64-gdal-2-4-2-mapserver-7-4-0\bin;C:\work\programs\release-1911-x64-gdal-2-4-2-mapserver-7-4-0\bin\gdal\java %JAVA_OPTS% SET PATH=C:\work\programs\release-1911-x64-gdal-2-4-2-mapserver-7-4-0\bin;C:\work\programs\release-1911-x64-gdal-2-4-2-mapserver-7-4-0\bin\gdal\java;%PATH% Note that each var uses 2 entries: C:\work\programs\release-1911-x64-gdal-2-4-2-mapserver-7-4-0\bin C:\work\programs\release-1911-x64-gdal-2-4-2-mapserver-7-4-0\bin\gdal\java -the first one refers to the path where there is *gdal204.dll* and all needed dependencies. -the second one refers to the path where there is the java JNI wrapper lib, *gdalalljni.dll* Please, let us know if that helps.
