findspell and cast X do not work for all chars all zones after recompile

[causticsand]

Required SQL's from git repository are sourced.
database shows all spells and spell information.
showspell returns zero's or nothing for spell info
cast X returns nothing and nothing is cast
log shows that spell was attempted to be cast.
used command: #findspell 30 (target=NONE)
spells_en and spells_us are in the server run directory
I'm at a loss here as to what I didn't do.
