compile grpc erro zlib_compress and zlib_decompress - build

Question

when I compile grpc according to https://grpc.io/docs/languages/cpp/quickstart/, after I run the command "make", I encounter such error messages:

I miss the task of git clone thirty-party/zlib is failed, I'm so sorry about it.
when build grpc, I encounter a error message:
gRPC_ABSL_PROVIDER is "module" but ABSL_ROOT_DIR is wrong
Solution: reference to https://github.com/spack/spack/issues/15619 and https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/16052
under grpc folder, run the following command
git submodule update --init
and then
cd ./cmake/build
and run the following command
cmake -DgRPC_INSTALL=ON \
-DgRPC_BUILD_TESTS=OFF \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$MY_INSTALL_DIR \
../..
thirty-party of zlib git clone fail lead to cmake fail, just need to go to thirty-party folder
cd thirty-party/
and
git clone https://github.com/madler/zlib
third_party/abseil-cpp compile fail because its CMakeList.txt need add one line, which is
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "-std=c++11")
at the begining but after the cmake_minimum_required(***).
reference to https://www.jianshu.com/p/08fdf54fbf43
when install abseil-cpp, I encounter a issue:
CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:53 (file):
file cannot create directory: /lib/cmake/absl. Maybe need administrative privileges.
this is because I undef MY_INSTALL_DIR. Maybe u change the window, and at that window, u don't export MY_INSTALL_DIR
