Good - so the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB is in the correct location.

No - the command line tools don't load all MIBs automatically.
They have a fixed list of MIBs to load, and you have to explicitly
add any extra ones to this. See the FAQ entry

How do I add a MIB to the tools?

That should indeed load the HostRes MIB file.

Note that this is now an error from the remote agent.
Previously, the tools were telling you that they didn't know
what to ask for. Now, the tools are asking for something,
and the agent is saying "No".

As Robert has said, you've forgotten '.0' instance subidentifier.
Try
snmpget -v 1 -c public localhost HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrSystemDate.0

No - the file is fine. See above.
