Mercenary failed to spawn

[pythag]

Hii
After some time I have managed to get a single pc private/server up and running, trying to get everything working that is possible - bots took some time but all there now.
However Mercs are down after intense searching via here and google.
I am using "peqbeta_2014-09-25-02-01"
I have turned them on
Resourced the code from here http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/sho...meele_texture1
Corrected the d_meele issue to d_melee
I have the hire window and can turn costs on and off
imported the dbstr_us.txt from a live account to correct the "Unknown DB String 6120105-2" errors

Yet all that still get "Mercenary failed to spawn!"

Any advice of what I am missing!
