A couple of things

1) in the future, you may want to remove all the .svn/ directories
from the zipfile, in the event you don't want more confidential
information leaking

2) likewise, you might want to remove your undodir/ from the zipfile
which also may have leaked information you don't want public

3) it would help to include the build/version information returned by

:version

My first guess is that you're running a "vim-tiny" build, in which
case it wasn't built with system-clipboard access. Check for things
like

+clipboard
+X11
+xterm_clipboard

in particular.
