Do you have filetype plugins turned on in your .vimrc? Either that, or manually setting the 'comments' option will be required for the automatic detection/insertion of comment leaders.

Note that all of these options may be overwritten in the filetype plugin, so it is probably more robust to use an autocmd or filetype plugin of your own to set the desired options per filetype.
