I had similar problems at one point, I still dont know what caused them, but I was able to work around the issue by removing most of wmii's components and installing the latest hg release...not a fix but a solution, could have been some leftovers from a previous install or something, as i think my wmii.sh was messed up along with some other stuff
 Thanks

I still cannot use M+p to run any program.

Now the report in ~/.xsession-errors:
  wmiir: fatal: Can't open file '/rbar/status': file not found
is gone (and the status bar was always ok).

Any other idea were to look or what to do?

  Thanks for any help,

I compiled and installed wmii (snapshot: wmii+ixp-20080520) on a new machine, 
and I cannot run any program using M+p.
Typing the name of an application it gets displayed in the bar, but after 
pressing enter the program does not start.
M+a and M+enter are working properly.
Runnig programs from a terminal does not cause any problem.

I'm using:

dmenu-3.9
plan9port-20080909
libixp (it should be 0.5, I got it via hg clone
http://code.suckless.org/hg/libixp, but this should not be relevant as the 
snapshot I installed has its own libixp)
GNU/Linux Ubuntu 8.04
