What does vim --version (or :version when running vim) show? In
particular, do you have +syntax or -syntax? You'll need to have the
former to be able to have syntax highlighting. You do realize that
html.vim itself will be highlighted according to vim's own syntax rules,
not html's.

What does :echo $VIMRUNTIME show -- and do you a) have syntax files in
$VIMRUNTIME/syntax, and b) have permission to read them at that location.

By "html.vim" are you referring to the syntax highlighting file that
came with vim or are you attempting to make your own? If the latter,
you really should not be overwriting the vim version, rather you should
be putting it into $HOME/.vim/syntax .
