It wasn’t able to create this directory

file problem creating directory: /home/behzad/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/cpp/absl

Check your filesystem permissions etc. this is clearly an issue in your environment.

[be4zad]

I changed the permissions but it gives the same error. There is no absl directory or file in /home/behzad/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/cpp.

[puremourning]

I'm confident that this is a problem with your system. cmake is failing to fetch the content and put it in the appropriate place.

as this is highly unlikely to be a bug, I'm going to close it. If you need further interactive support, reach out on gitter/matrix. It's verry difficult to diagnose these sorts of things via GitHub issues (which are not for technical support)
