cp $HOME/.wmii-3/wmiirc $HOME/.wmii-3/wmiircb      # backup the not working
cp /usr/local/etc/wmii-3/wmiirc $HOME/.wmii-3/wmiirc # copy the default wmiirc
echo 'xmessage mine' >> $HOME/.wmii-3/wmiirc      # differentiate both
And check what wmiirc gets executed.

It's also useful to read the debug/error statements that are printed
in the place
you started wmii, so if you're starting wmii via 'startx' check the
terminal, after
you've started wmii.

I usually put this on my xinitrc, to catch errors/output:
~/.xinitrc
  ...
  wmii > ~/.xsession-errors 2>&1
So i can see errors in X, without checking the terminal.

You can also take a look at the wmii startup sh-script:
 - wmii/cmd/wm/wmii (sources)
 - /usr/local/bin/wmii (install)

Good luck
