Building a project fails, why?

SQL Server Data Tools for Visual Studio 2017. A solution of mixed SSAS and SSIS. Trying to see why a build fails. Not a single error or warning in the Error List.

I do a Rebuild for solution:
========== Rebuild All: 4 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped ==========

I do the build one-by-one for the projects. It is the SSAS project that fails.

Here's the complete data I get out of it, once I set the MSBuild project build output verbosity to Diagnostics:
------ Build started: Project: myprojectname, Configuration: Development ------
========== Build: 0 succeeded or up-to-date, 1 failed, 0 skipped ==========

How do I find

  1. What fails
  2. Why fails

    From current info , it is hard to know what is not successes in the building process. Honestly, I have met similar issue, but it has not affect my project processing and deployment, also it disappears later on so I have not taken care of it.

    You could try those method in this thread. See if any method could help. I would also add Visual studio tag for you see if any VS experts could suggest what to check from Visual Studio vision.
