Spawn conditions don't seem to be working.

No, spawn_events is handled by the DB now, those NPCs are obsolete and just haven't been removed.

You answered your own question, though. You said your server is using year 0000, but in the PHP editor spawn_events are on year 3518. You most likely did not copy eqtime.cfg to your server directory when you sourced your database. You have to copy this file every time you source in a new version of PEQ. This makes sure your server clock is in-sync with your spawn_events table, which is what triggers spawns that depend on time of day.
