I'm also experiencing this issue. This is also affecting the Media Player users who will not be able to connect to Jellyfin Server as Jellyfin Media Player v1.10.0 and newer requires Jellyfin Server 10.9.1 or later to work.

So the last compatible option for Windows Server 2019 users seems to be: Player: 1.9.1 Server: 10.8.13

Same problem with my server. Looks like it's been fixed by #121 so hopefully gets pushed to an update soon.

There are issues with the way we currently handle the build when it comes to either of those fixes, so the next update from today is going out "as-is" until we can fix it properly.
