Hi Saleem,
As you are now talking about specific failures in JDT, we need to know
about which ones are failing. I am not sure that cbi-dev is the most
useful place for this conversation, it may be best on
platform-releng-dev as that is where the Eclipse build engineers who
manage the official Eclipse builds.
PS. It may be helpful to have some context about what you are trying
to achieve so we don't fall into an XY Problem:

Thanks,

Unfortunately I have not been able to reproduce it. After trying a new full clean build, I ended up with yet another error. It seems related but this time I get the following:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-surefire-plugin:0.26.0:test (default-test) on project org.eclipse.jdt.core.tests.compiler: There are test failures.
Sorry for sending so many messages, I've tried doing some research but there aren't a lot of answers on the internet about this issue.

While others have good advice, I would also encourage you to also try to
get the build running completely, first, and then worry about the tests.
Such as use -DskipTests=true, for now -- if you have not done so,
already. It is not that the tests are not important, just that by
confirming you can get through a complete build will help confirm that
the build is ok, and it really is a "test problem" you are having. (Some
tests, for example, *might* fail because the build was not "complete" in
some way? In a case of "incomplete build" the error may not show up
until later in the build-with-no-tests, I suspect)
And, I just noticed, the reference you give at the beginning was to Lars
Vogel's tutorial. I know Lars makes great tutorials, but you might also
take a peek at the "official" Platform documentation at
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform-releng/Platform_Build
and see if there are any differences that would give you any insight. (I
sort of doubt it, but I've not read Lar's tutorial, so it is just an
suggestion in case you feel "stuck".)
Good luck,
P.S. As always with "newcomers" (if you don't mind that term), I'd also
encourage you to open bugs or update the Platform's wiki page if you
find something that would be helpful to others.
