Discovered Items

[provocating]

What are the conditions for items to make it into discovered items? Is there a level when it starts happening, is it any items or special items?

I believe it is when the item is acquired whether it be by looting or summoning. A lot of the following items are summoned, none are looted, some are bought, some are from starting with them.

I wonder if there is a variable I am missing here? On my test server nothing appears to be populating in that table.

Yes, likely you're missing the rule_value setting.
mysql> SELECT * FROM rule_values WHERE rule_name LIKE 'Character:EnableDiscovere
dItems';
+------------+---------------------------------+------------+-------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| ruleset_id | rule_name | rule_value | notes
|
+------------+---------------------------------+------------+-------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 1 | Character:EnableDiscoveredItems | true | If enabled, it ena
bles EVENT_DISCOVER_ITEM and also saves character names and timestamps |

Here's your rule: https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob/master/zone/inventory.cpp#L306

Are you trying this with your GM flag on?

Nope, but I was definitely missing the rule.
