There are a few problems in the logs posted here. First there’s some blueprint error that prevents cook from succeeding (this is not Linux-specifc):
[2015.05.11-16.16.07:396][ 0]LogInit:Display: LogBlueprint:Error: [compiler BP_CloudVolume] Error Could not find a function named “GetScalabilityQuality” in ‘BP_CloudVolume’.
Second, when you invoke BuildCookRun command of UAT, make sure that you pass -build. Passing both -build and -clean should be a safe bet.
