I am trying to have custom header like this one. I am using classicthesis. I have used fancyhdr but it gives me error. I have also tried this link but no luck. Here is my code.

Best Answer
Note the following.
\areasetstuff is pointless, as are the settings of both the class and classicthesis.Here's a relatively simple example, derived from a simplified form of the MWE which demonstrates how to use KOMA's scrlayer-scrpage to set up headers and footers of the kind shown in the question.
Actually, the footers aren't shown, but I assume the page number ought not appear in the default place in addition to the header.
headseplineis used in the package options to get the line under the header.\addtokomafont{}{}is used to set the header in italic, rather than oblique, font.The
scrheadingspage style provided by scrlayer-scrpage is used to create the custom header.Since we are using this option, we need to tell KOMA which sections should create 'marks'. In our case, we want chapters to do this.
The header itself is configured using the class and package commands for setting inner, outer and centre headers and footers.
\headmarkis easier than messing with\leftmarkand\rightmarksince all our headers are the same. This sets the inner head.Marking the chapter sets the centre header, so let's get rid of it.
\pagemarksets the page number in the outer head.We don't want the centre footer.
We want to change the format of the chapter number which, by default is just a number, so we add the name of the chapter sections and the colon and space at the end.
Here's the result:
