Symptom:
In Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3 CU8, we found 22 errors after running a full compile on the AOT, all related to the Summetry Namespace. After researching the web, and trying all of the solutions offered on other websites, we were still getting exactly the same compile errors.

Example Code containing error:
“Symmetry.TaxEngine.BenefitInfo benefitInfo401_403;”
“Symmetry.TaxEngine.STEPayrollCalculator ste;”
“Symmetry.TaxEngine.STEPayrollCalculator ste;”
Solution:
Finally we took the DLLs from an environment that worked and copied them to our environment. The Dlls were different, and in size and date. this solved the problem.
By reinstalling the binaries again from AX2012 R3 CU8 installation file also solved the problem.
Hi,
I tried the above solution you gave,but still error is coming..
Try adding the dll to:
1. C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Common
2. C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Server\Common
3. C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Client\Bin
4. C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Server\[AOS]\bin
Please let me know if this works.
Also, if it is a new DLL, add the ste-net.dll again to the AOT\Reference node.
Lately I have installed AX 2012 R3 CU10 og AX 2012 R3 CU8 a couple of times, and I have dealt with this problem at every intallation.
The CIL compilation end up with warnings about Symmetry…..
The solution is in this link https://daxbeginners.files.wordpress.com/2015/08/image3.png
But a new installation includes the right version, and the reference is ok, so it is just this part that you need.
Stop the AOS
Go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Server\instance_name\bin and empty the folder XppIL
Start the AOS.
Start a complete CIL compilation
