I ran into a very similar problem. There is a define in arena.c for the
zone # of the arena (ours is currently 13) but the zone it is asking for
is the virtual zone, so do a zreset on the arena zone and see what # zone
it is telling you that you are resettingand put that in there. If you add
or take out any zones under the arena zone # wise, you will have to adjust
that #.
