So that what I was thinking: for a reason or another it can't write in the swap file. Look at it, it's named like your .sh file but it begins with a dot next to it. Check that it's writable, that you don't have problemes on your FS...

A quick-and-dirty workaround is -n option
Code:
vim -n file
For a new unrelated question you better open a new thread.

Can you please read the LQ Rules and "Question Guidelines"??? Open a new thread for a new question, and do basic research before posting a question. Also, you need to provide actual details on things. How, exactly, are you keeping track of processes running on an ongoing basis now, to give you something to search?
