I use Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Vim version is 7.4 with patches 1-1689, and extra patches 8.0.0056. After setting up `:set hlserach`, then searching by '/' + keyword; however, keyword is not highlighted. How can I enabled search highlight?

Thanks

I don't think anyone here uses Ubuntu, try https://ubuntuforums.org/ instead.

For the record, keyword highlighting works just fine in vim for my Debian jessie & stretch systems

Probably for the same or similar reasons you direct Debian users to ubuntu forums...

Erm, how is providing solutions in the form of external links in any way similar to posting questions about an unsupported operating system?

Also, please try to stay on topic and refrain from hijacking other user's threads.
