EQemu-Rev1316-bots.rar and EQEmu Revision 1589 are builds of the server. The main differences are the obvious difference in revision (aka version) and the fact that one has been compiled with support for bots. You should be using one or the other.. your decision being made by the question, "do I want to be able to spawn bots?"

I don't know anything about the errors you might be experiencing but I would urge you to step slowly through the setup guide, do not miss any steps and follow the instructions exactly. Make sure you use the same versions of the prerequisite software (mysql, perl) wherever possible. Activeperl and Mysql both have links to archived versions from their download pages.

I followed this guide (http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=Windows) and installed my first server off of the bots build without any trouble just 2 days ago.

Also, you can go to Last World Community (http://lastworld.cjb.net:85/) and get a more current compiled version of EQemu with bots support.
