This used to happen on older CEDET versions.

Not a file, but a directory.

I cannot reproduce any of this, so I cannot help you. All I can tell you
is to start Emacs using

  emacs -Q -l <path to cedet>/cedet-devel-load.el -f semantic-mode

with <path to cedet> pointing to a freshly checked out and byte-compiled
CEDET, with ~/.emacs.d/semanticdb removed (if it exists).

When you edit a test.cpp file in this Emacs, #include'ing some standard
header, you should see lots of "Parse ..." messages when you ask for
completions. On exiting Emacs, it should ask you if it should create
~/.emacs.d/semanticdb for you.
