HTML5 can't get project to build

okay so i’ve used UE 4.6 and 4.7. And done a lot of troubleshooting trying to get this working over the last week.

basically follow the following steps.

  1. download engine source off of github.
  2. run setup bat file to download dependencies
  3. build engine in Visual studio
  4. run engine, creating new blank project
  5. add c++ source file to project ( mainly as a test and to create the source folder)
  6. build project in VS
  7. try to build game for html5 in engine. It fails giving the following ( long log )

I’ve also tried building and using unreal frontend to make the project which was a suggestion from other forum posts. It doesn’t seem to work. It builds indefinitely ( left it run 8 + hours overnight)

Sometimes it does actually fail after 30 minutes. Here’s the log when that happens.
