Unknown function: snipMate#TriggerSnippet

[code4pay]

if I type my snippet character and hit tab I get

E117: Unknown function: snipMate#TriggerSnippet
E15: Invalid expression: snipMate#TriggerSnippet()

using vim 8, plugin loaded by vundle
I have commented out every command in my vimrc and deleted all other plugins except for loading this plugin and get the same error.

Thanks in advance for anyhelp

@code4pay Are you using master from GitHub? Please make sure that you are.

@code4pay Are you on Windows? If so this could be a duplicate of #264

Hi Thanks for the reply, No Not on Windows on Debian Wheezy , and using Vundle checked status of branch and did a pull but it is uptodate with master.

Note I have tried both file type on and off with no change.

@code4pay Can you provide a minimal vimrc that produces this issue for you? That is a vimrc that contains absolutely nothing but what's necessary to produce this issue. Take out extraneous plugins, extraneous settings, and so on.

Thanks @ajzafar, I worked it out when I went to start cleaning out my vimrc. I always work in the same saved session file which must have had some thing set that broke the plugin even when I reloaded my vimrc. When I went to edit the vimrc without first loading the session file it worked. Apologies for not picking that up earlier.
thanks for your help.

Glad to help.
