Assuming you got the required files from the Expansion Github repository, other than copy/pasting the required parts for the mod, did you manually edit any of the files in a text editor?

besides adding my admin to Community-Online-Tools and copy/pasting from read me files. I added <economycore>
<ce folder="expansion_ce">
<file name="expansion_types.xml" type="types"/>
<file name="expansion_spawnabletypes.xml" type="spawnabletypes"/>
<file name="expansion_events.xml" type="events"/>
</ce>
underneath </defaults> in cfgeconomycore and followed some other steps on the read me.

I followed the README_TUTORIAL.txt in DayZ-Expansion-Missions-Master. not sure how to upload it here.

Sorry also it is saying that a bunch of things trying to spawn are invalid types. so I must of screwed up directing the server to the right area somehow

When you copied the XML files, "cfgeconomycore.xml" and "cfgeventspawns.xml" did you open those files and copy the text in to the original files of the same name on the server, or did you copy the entire .xml file and ovr-write the original .xml files?
- It sounds like you did the second, and copy/paste the whole file .. these files are incomplete. they only contain a few new lines that you need to copy and past IN TO the original files .. this is a common mistake .. You will need to get copies of the original files and put them in your mission folder, and then edit those files with the parts inside the expansion files of the same names.
