ok, I finally found out the issue. Apparently renaming the top directory that contains all stuff (vim74) to vim/, causes my issue. Leaving it as vim74/ works fine, vim-rooter now does the only chdir, no additional chdir.
This works with vim without cream and also the vim I was using from tux. I will keep that as I need lua. I saw another thread or issue asking for the installation dir not to contain the version name, this makes sense to me too. thanks On Mon, Dec 30, 2013 at 12:27 PM, jmlucjav <[email protected]> wrote: > ok, I installed vim without cream, and starting: > "c:\Program Files (x86)\vim\vim74\gvim.exe" -u NONE -U NONE -V9vimlog.txt > > I run :scriptnames and also get only > 1: c:\Program Files (x86)\vim\vim74\menu.vim > 2: c:\Program Files (x86)\vim\vim74\autoload\paste.vim > > so I guess this was not a problem to begin with, and I should focus again > on the chdir being done...? > With this versiosn of vim, I dont see the chdir in the logs...I am going > to investigate more > > > On Sun, Dec 29, 2013 at 8:35 PM, Tony Mechelynck < > [email protected]> wrote: > >> On 29/12/13 19:39, jmlucjav wrote: >> >>> I am calling 'gvim.exe -u NONE -U NONE -V9 vimlog.txt' not vim.exe...I >>> always use gvim, not vim.exe.
