I am having trouble getting Vundle for Vim to work (I am on Ubuntu 14.04). Here the relevant part from my .vimrc

Why does it throw an error E492: Not an editor command: PluginInstall ?

You are missing

call vundle#end()

between lines 26 and 28.

Note that Vundle's API has changed: it's not :Bundle* anymore, it's :Plugin*.

  • It doesn't seem to work for me. I get "line 7: E117: Unknown function: vundle#rc" followed by a list of all Plugins and "line 28: E117: Unknown function: vundle#end". I updated the original question with the changed config file. – Severin Jun 13 '14 at 06:55

    Even after using vundle#end i still get the same error – dopatraman Jun 30 '15 at 17:29

Turns out that call vundle#rc() seems to be deprecated. Using call vundle#begin() fixed the issue for me.

This error message came up may be because your vi is not vim.

try install the vim first. If it let you, that means is it the problem.

sudo yum install vim

set alias

alias vi=vim

Then try run vi and 

:PluginInstall

This happened to my work machine (Windows) because I was using Cygwin ViM. The problem was that when I cloned Vundle.vim it used Windows style line endings and the Vundle plugin wasn't loading. I had to run find ~/.vim -type f -iname '*.vim' -exec dos2unix {} \+ to convert my files to unix line endings before it worked.

This assumes you have dos2unix installed.
