I've seen other issues documented regarding SSIS project build failures but nothing that fits my scenario.
I am attempting to build an SSIS project (.dtproj) on a self hosted agent.
The project builds fine in Visual Studio 2019 and also on Azure Pipelines, but when I attempt to build it with the self hosted agent (via Command Line Task in a Build Pipeline in Azure DevOps) I get the following errors:
[debug]Evaluating condition for step: 'Build SSIS Packages'

The other generic trouble shooting advice is to remove the space in your "My Project" folder. Yes, it's 2019 and it shouldn't matter and many tools comprehend spaces but the fewer escapes you need to worry about, the better your chances of success.
