Just had to deal with this problem, and although all previously posted answers were helpful, they did not solve the issue in my case.

My problem was fixed by removing the following line in my .vimrc:

Answer 2

I had the same problem. Only difference was I am using solarize rather then molokai.

To fix the issue, I have set up an alias in ~/.bashrc:

alias tmux="TERM=screen-256color-bce tmux"

And set up the default-terminal option in ~/.tmux.conf:

set -g default-terminal "xterm"

Lastly, do $ source ~/.bashrc to load new alias.
