I found the best way to debug your .vimrc is to enable the debug and pip it to a log file. Examine the file and search for the error. If the error you are receiving is " no mapping found", open the log file and search for the these words. :/no mapping found.

It will show you where the error is coming from. In my case I found that the error is from a plugin I installed. I disabled it and it works fine again.

Run the following command at the prompt:

vim -V20 2>&1 | tee logfile

I had the same issue.

I commented out all maps, thinking they were all fine. Sure enough, vim loaded without err.

Then, I reintroduced the mappings until one broke it. Sure enough I had left out the space between the lhs and the rhs. As soon as I corrected this, it worked perfectly again.
