Cannot find color scheme 'gruvbox'

[chechoRP]

I don't know if this is an issue of gruvbox or Vundle, but I am getting an error E185: Cannot find color scheme 'gruvbox' . I have the line Plugin 'morhetz/gruvbox' in my .vimrc and if a dig into the .vim/bundle/ folder I can see gruvbox on it.

Does anyone have the same issue?

[chechoRP]

Nevermind, it was a Vundle issue. I needed to change the line call vundle#begin() with call vundle#rc() in my .vimrc. (Not sure why though)

same thing happened to me and the above suggestion made no difference. I was able to fix my situation by creating a colors directory in my .vim directory
mkdir ~/.vim/colors
and then copying the gruvbox colors file to that directory
cp ~/.vim/bundle/gruvbox/colors/gruvbox.vim ~/.vim/colors/

the last one makes the error disappear, but the plugin still not working! I try the change to vundle#rc, it didnt make a difference

Look into this

In ~/.vimrc you should have
set t_Co=256
syntax on

This made it work

Thanks, Nicolass, it works for me!

if you use Pathogen, execute pathogen#infect() should be ahead of colorscheme gruvbox

.vimrc:
execute pathogen#infect()
colorscheme gruvbox

I just had the same problem with Vundle but none of the above solution worked.

What did work is put 'Plugin 'morhetz/gruvbox' as the last plugin to load.

Hope it helps.

vundle of plug: You must first have Plugin 'morhetz/gruvbox' in your vimrc and then do PlugInstall or PluginInstall after that add colorscheme gruvbox to vimrc and :source .

I did the following to solve this problem(tried all of the above solutions):

added - Plugin 'morhetz/gruvbox' as the last plugin in ~/.vimrc.bundle
added - set t_Co=256 in my .vimrc file
created autoload and colors directory in ~/.vim
cp -r ~/.vim/bundle/gruvbox/autoload ~/.vim/autoload
cp -r ~/.vim/bundle/gruvbox/colors ~/.vim/colors
and finally source .vimrc

Actually.. the solution is that you have to make sure the colorscheme command is after the "Plug 'morhetz/gruvbox'"... I found out that if it goes before, it wont work

I had this problem because I put "colorscheme gruvbox" in my plugins.vim that I souce in init.vim. If I put "colorscheme gruvbox" after the source line of plugins.vim, it works well :)

实际上..解决方案是你必须确保colorscheme命令在“Plug 'morhetz/gruvbox'”之后......我发现如果它在之前，它将无法工作

thank you ,it's useful.

I was having the same issue. I am using vim-plug for the installations.

1. Make sure the colorscheme gruvbox comes after plug Calls.
2. Make sure you call plug#end() after plugging in your desired plugs, for this case Plug 'morhetz/gruvbox'.

These were some changes and errors I made and were fixed. Hope this helps you too!

I have tried this way and it's helpful

For me the solution was putting call plug#end() above colorscheme gruvbox

[CricySaray]

It works me from StackOverflow like above from @ZXTube

call plug#begin()
Plug 'rakr/vim-one' " tell Vim to load the theme/plugin
call plug#end()
colorscheme one " set the color scheme after the theme provider has been loaded
