Issue installing vim plugins

So i'm rocking a VIM version 6.3.82 on rhel 4.9... which i'd imagine is the biggest culprit. (no chance of an upgrade any time soon)

I downloaded the latest Rails.vim and have installed this many times on 开发者_运维百科my home machine.

I try the command :Rails! and i Get "e493: Not an editor command."

In my .vimrc i've added

set nocompatible
syntax on
filetype plugin indent on

Am i doomed with a dated vim to use most any plugins? Am i missing something in my .vimrc to enable vim plugins?

Any direction is appreciated. :p-

TIA, Kirby

You'll need to use an old version of Rails.vim it looks like. The last version that worked with Vim 6 is version 2.1:

You may be able to compile your own version of vim in your home directory if you want to use the latest Vim and Rails.vim.
