SMF suggests installing package to wrong directory

Hello SMF-people,

Last week I installed SMF. In order to be able to test packages before installing them definitely I set up a test install by copying the original install and database and adjusting the parameters in Settings.php and under Server Settings -> Database and Paths. The original forum is located under /var/www/smf and the testforum is installed under /var/www/smftest.

When trying to install a package (I tried Content Management System) the installer will try to change and install files under /var/www/smf, which is surely incorrect.

Have I overlooked a setting somewhere perhaps?

Thanks, this worked for settings the correct paths!

There was one minor error though which I had to resolve by hand. I already had SimpleDesk installed, so I had to add some lines to index.php by hand. This of course has no relation to the error above.
