Perl-support: Crashes at startup giving the following error in gvim about vim-plugins HOT 8 CLOSED

Do you see the "Perl" menu (in gVim)? What is the output of this command, on the Vim command-line:

:call Perl_Settings(2)

Is there a file ~/.vim/bundle/perl-support/plugin/perl-support.vim ?

from vim-plugins.

I do not see the Perl menu when I open a *.pl file, when I open *.pl I get the above mentioned error.

when I did :call Perl_Settings(2) I got the below message
E117: Unknown function: Perl_Settings

I do see the perl-support.vim at ~/.vim/bundle/perl-support/plugin/perl-support.vim

I am using vim 7.4 to do all of the above.

from vim-plugins.

So Perl-Support is there but is not loaded properly, which is a bit puzzling. Could you please run to following command:

:scriptnames

It lists all plug-ins which were loaded by Vim. Does the list contain .../plugin/perl-support.vim ?

Also, please run this, it might help me understand what is going on:

:echo g:Perl_PluginVersion

from vim-plugins.

:scriptnames just shows following ones for perl support.
~/.vim/plugged/perl-support/ftdetect/template.vim
~/.vim/plugged/perl-support/ftplugin/perl.vim

:echo g:Perl_PluginVersion gave:
E121: Undefined variable: g:Perl_PluginVersion
E15: Invalid expression: g:Perl_PluginVersion

Thanks for the replies :)

sorry, I do see these also (after doing :PlugUpdate everytime I open gvim):
68: ~/.vim/plugged/perl-support/plugin/perl-support.vim
69: ~/.vim/plugged/perl-support/autoload/mmtemplates/config.vim
70: ~/.vim/plugged/perl-support/autoload/mmtoolbox/tools.vim
71: ~/.vim/plugged/perl-support/autoload/mmtoolbox/make.vim

from vim-plugins.

oh this problem seems wierd..
I used vim plug to install perl-support again and when I open a perl script in gvim the problem exists, but

1. I run :PlugUpdate - updates all plugins
2. do a vsp on a perl script, then PERL support comes back and WORKS .

But when I open *.pl directly from terminal in gvim perl, I still get the same error.

from vim-plugins.

Finally found a solution for the issue.

I had to keep my vim plug plugins in .vimrc instead of .gvimrc . Once I did that the issue got solved.

Thank you for the help.

Nice to hear that. Happy Vim'ing.
