Installed build fails. Retries not enabled

I’ve been trying to make a build from the source and I have been having a bit of an issue getting it to work. At first I was getting an error saying that I couldn’t find the PDBCopy.exe couldn’t be found. And it turned out that the engine has a line of code that has it being directed to a non-existent directory. So I though I would change that and retry the build (after building that specific cs file). Then that turned out to give me a whole slew of new errors. I thought that it might’ve been because I changed that one line to be the correct file pathway, so I re-downloaded the files to try to make an installed build once again. But this time, I tried to do a symlink to the correct file pathway by using the v12.0 backup file pathway in case the first file pathway doesn’t exist. I still got the same errors.

Program.Main: ERROR: AutomationTool terminated with exception: AutomationTool.AutomationException: BUILD FAILED: failed, retries not enabled:

This is the top header line before the whole list of points it’s saying there’s an error at. Can anybody help me out here? This installed build thing has been really annoying me the past couple of weeks as everytime I try to see if i can build it, it just gives me the same errors no matter what I try. Attached is the full list of errors I get. I’m starting to think it’s a bug because of VS2017.
