We recently installed 4.7.0 and it works great and very expandable. Great CMS! We have it setup within a directory within our main site, so www.mainsite.com/cms. Views work prefectly, backend admin works perfectly. The problem is when we try and install a package. No matter which package, it keeps trying to install it in the incorrect directory. So rather than going to site\cms\umbraco\plugins, it puts it in site\cms\cms\umbraco\plugins, adding a new dir "cms". Any ideas on where to set the correct install path for packages?
It's <add key='umbracoPath' value='~/umbraco' />. If I remove the tilde the site breaks. That's the weird part is that the rest of the site works correctly, except for installing packages. Here are the other paths if that helps: <add key='umbracoReservedPaths' value='~/umbraco,~/install/,~/see' /> <add key='umbracoContentXML' value='~/App_Data/umbraco.config'~/> <add key='umbracoStorageDirectory' value='~/App_Data' />

Hi Robert what is the setting of the umbracopath in your web.config?
It should be : <add key="umbracoPath" value="~/cms" />
If this is really not working, a dirty hack can be to make a rewrite rule in IIS ;)

This forums' editor removes the tildes if I use double quotes, hense the single quotes in the params.
