I have a simple .vimrc file. It is 3 lines in its entirety:

execute pathogen#infect()
syntax on
filetype plugin indent on

When I try to start vim, though, I get the following error message:

Error detected while processing /home/simoonp/.vimrc:
line    1:
E117: Unknown function: pathogen#infect
E15: Invalid expression: pathogen#infect()

I searched many means , but the question hasn't been solved.

Do you have `~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim`? – romainl Aug 06 '17 at 13:06
I do not have, should I create it ? – 司明朋 Aug 09 '17 at 03:49
Yes you should create it and fill it with the content f this file: https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen/blob/master/autoload/pathogen.vim – Tinmarino Aug 09 '17 at 10:46
Did you *even* read pathogen's README? – romainl Aug 09 '17 at 16:06
thanks your advice and link, I solve my question. – 司明朋 Aug 10 '17 at 05:18
