How to troubleshoot pathogen?

Using Mac OSX El Capitan. Vim 7.4 MacOS X version, not MacVim. Running from terminal.

I can run nerdtree as a plugin, but won't work with pathogen. Same case with other plugins.

I have followed the install directions closely at https://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree

From the ~/.vimrc:

set nocompatible
filetype off " Pathogen needs to run before plugin indent on
call pathogen#infect()
call pathogen#helptags()
syntax on
filetype plugin indent on
colorscheme murphy
inoremap ii <Esc>`^

From :scriptnames

31: ~/.vim/bundle/vim-markdown-preview/plugin/vim-markdown-preview.vim
32: /opt/local/share/vim/vim74/syntax/modula2.vim`

Directory structure is

~/.vim
~/.vim/autoload
~/.vim/bundle
~/.vim/plugin
~/.vim/lib
etc, etc

~/.vim/bundle has /nerdtree from cloned from github.

File loads in Vim but no nerdtree or other plugins are active.

    please clarify what exactly does not work. As you can see from the :scriptnames output, nerdtree plugin is loaded. Perhaps you should ask at the plugin's issue tracker Commented Oct 14, 2015 at 7:10

    Define "won't work".

Ugh, I was calling :NERD_Tree, not :NERDTree

Also added to my .vimrc:

autocmd vimenter * NERDTree

"Problem" solved.
