Vim/Vundle broken after reverting back to bash from zsh

Question

This is the error message I get when trying to BundleInstall:

Shell can't be executed /bin/zsh
Error while executing "function vundle#installer#new..<SNR>37_process..vundle#installer#run..vundle#installer#install..<SNR>37_sync..<SNR>37_system":
Line    1:
E484: Can't open file /tmp/vfHFBSJ/8
Error while executing "function vundle#installer#new..<SNR>37_process":
Zeile   13:
E121: Undefined variable: g:vundle_last_status
E15: Invalid expression: 'error' == g:vundle_last_status
Zeile   17:
E121: Undefined variable: g:vundle_last_status

I removed everything in the bundle directory and I reinstalled vundle. Still it tries to execute zsh. What is wrong here?

Which default shell does vim use? Run `:set shell`. – evnu Jan 28 '14 at 11:59 — evnu, Jan 28 '14 at 11:59

I'd guess that 'shell' is still set to use zsh. Check with :verbose set shell? and disable the config / reconfigure to :set shell=/bin/bash in your ~/.vimrc.

Setting the shell in my .vimrc solved the issue, but without the : – Ramon Suarez Dec 08 '17 at 11:04

I uninstalled zsh but in my /etc/passwd it stilled referenced /bin/zsh instead of /bin/bash. So I wasn't even able to log back in to my user account after logging out/rebooting.
