Cannot find color scheme solarized

[jeromecovington]

Here is my .vim/bundle dir: vim-colors-solarized

Here is my .vimrc syntax enable set background=dark colorscheme solarized

But when I start vim to edit a JavaScript file, I get this error. Error detected while processing /Users/jcovington/.vimrc: line 3: E185: Cannot find color scheme solarized Press ENTER or type command to continue

Oddly, when I begin editing the file, it seems that the Solarized colors are applied.

How can I avoid the error?

Shame here.

[AnderRasoVazquez]

I fixed. This is what I did: cp ~/.vim/bundle/vim-colors-solarized/colors/solarized.vim ~/.vim/colors/

@AnderRasoVazquez it's work and thanks. i'm using vundle and vim version is 7.4.

When I originally had my .vimrc set up, I was using the older version of vundle and I had colorscheme solarized on the line following Bundle 'altercation/vim-colors-solarized'. With the new version of vundle (Vundle.vim), it appears as though colorscheme solarized must come somewhere after call vundle#end().

@wimplash that was it! moved it after vundle#end() and it worked for me

@wimplash thanks!

For Pathogen, can this be fixed without doing a copy after cloning? For now im symlinking to make sure that I can get all the updates.

@AnderRasoVazquez It woks for me too thanks! :+1:

[improved-broccoli]

@wimplash Works for me too. Thanks!

[gngdb]

Same problem, thanks for the fix!

Instead you can add it to rtp before loading the colorscheme.

set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/vim-colors-solarized

@wimplash Thanks!

@wimplash Thanks! I had this same issue using neovim and vim-plug but moving the colorscheme to after my vim-plug stanza fixed it. Example for others below:

let $NVIM_TUI_ENABLE_TRUE_COLOR=1
syntax enable
set background=dark " or dark

call plug#begin('~/.vim/plugged')
Plug 'https://github.com/altercation/vim-colors-solarized.git'
call plug#end()

colorscheme solarized

@dcapwell As @wimplash pointed out, move colorscheme after execute pathogen#infect().

[blue7wings]

@weakish Thanks! it works☺

[lfir]

Thanks, I'm using a different color scheme but also vundle, and this worked equally well for it.

@wimplash Thanks!

I had the same issue - then I found this :smiley: - https://stackoverflow.com/a/34165694/1506858

Your vimrc is supposed to be here: $HOME/.vimrc or there, if you use Vim 7.4 or newer: $HOME/.vim/vimrc

[daveyproctor]

Thank you, @wimplash!

With the above scheme, and then start running it the ， I get this error. .vim file is missing, and then I fixed. This is what I did:

cp ~/.vim/bundle/vim-colors-solarized/colors/solarized.vim ~/.vim/colors/solarized.vim

[arvindamirtaa]

The simple solution that worked for me was to set colors_name=<Name of your theme>.

@AnderRasoVazquez Thank you!!!
