I've just been busy configuring vim to look like an IDE with the help of this and this source, but i can't seem to get the syntax highlighting to work.
In my ~/.vimrc i have the following two settings filetype plugin indent on and syntax on that supposed to highlight the syntax, but whenever i open a file (Javascript for example) it doesn't work.
When i open the file and do :syntax list i get the following response: No syntax items defined for this buffer
I (quick) search on the internet al refer to the settings i mentioned (and are defined correctly).
What am i missing?

I now noticed that when i try to reload my .vimrc file, i get the following error:
Error detected while processing /usr/share/vim/vim80/syntax/syntax.vim: line 42: E216: No such group or event: filetypedetect BufRead Which points me in the direction of changing my runtimepath value, but i don't have that defined anywhere. I've tried adding it to my .vimrc, but i still get the same error after reloading.
I've placed it at the top of the document (right after set nocompatible, so perhaps the position could be the issue, but if so, where should i place it then?

Damnit, i was missing a + character in line 6
set set rtp=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim should have been set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim. Now it works!

Make sure you can :source ~/.vimrc successfully with no error when you edit update ~/.vimrc.
Step to do source vimrc:
vim ~/.vimrc- type
:source ~/.vimrc - enter
