Contents of YCM, ycmd and completion engine logfiles

Reproduce the issue with vim -Nu /path/to/YCM/vimrc_ycm_minimal, which enabled debug logging and other useful diagnostics. Include a link to a [gist][] containing all of the log files listed by :YcmToggleLogs.

OS version, distribution, etc.

Include system information here.

Output of build/install commands

Include link to a [gist][] containing the invocation and entire output of install.py if reporting an installation issue.

So you are editing the ycmd source code, and you decide not to load the ycmd extra conf file, but you do load your own extra configuration file from your home directory.

what are you trying to achieve by that?

Unfortunately your steps to reproduce are not complete. Given this is the ycmd codebase it should be trivial for me to reproduce the issue, but I can't given your steps. Can you break down the exact sequence of commands you ran from, and reproduce using the ycm minimal vimrc like the template requests?

Thanks for your suggestions

use the ycm minimal vimrc

generate compile_commads.json

it alse happend but seems different

No extra configuration file found

What "wrong version" means

it used /Users/fjw/.vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/third_party/clangd/output/bin/clangd with ycm_minimal_vimrc

I am just using the YCM source code as an example, in fact, I have encountered this problem in other projects

please can you provide a minimal reproducible test case if you think this is a bug. YOu're not bulding the YCM source code correctly (you should use ./build.py --build-dir build and it should just work). But ycmd is not a minimal project.

use the ycm minimal vimrc

you should run vim -Nu /path/to/minimal_vimrc , like CONTRIBUTING.md says.
