CKFinder creates 3-chars long folders / wrong path

Hi guys,
I've spent long hours trying to solve my problem.

I'm working in my local machine, under Wampserver 2.0i
CKEditor 3.4 (rev 5825)
CKFinder 2.0.1 for php

The website I'm working on is located in E:/Docs/web/Test/web/[all_my_content]
I'm using CKEditor, working fine
CKFinder's window opens properly when clicking on [Explore the server] button
When clicking on that button, CKFinder creates a new folder in my hard drive:
E:/Docs/web/Tes using the 3 first character of my site name.
This Tes folder has the subfolders that contain the uploaded images:
E:/Docs/web/Tes/userfiles/images

CKEditor directory: E:/Docs/web/Test/web/ckeditor
CKFinder directory: E:/Docs/web/Test/web/ckfinder

My page calling CKEditor/CKFinder is
E:/Docs/web/Test/web/admin/index.php

<head>
   <script type="text/javascript" src="/test/ckeditor/ckeditor.js"></script>
</head>

<body>
...
<textarea name='valeur' id="valeur" rows='10' wrap='VIRTUAL' class='champGrand'>My value</textarea>
<script type="text/javascript">
   CKEDITOR.replace( 'valeur',
   {
      filebrowserBrowseUrl      : '/test/ckfinder/ckfinder.html',
      filebrowserImageBrowseUrl : '/test/ckfinder/ckfinder.html?Type=Images',
      filebrowserFlashBrowseUrl : '/test/ckfinder/ckfinder.html?Type=Flash',
      filebrowserUploadUrl      : '/test/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Files',
      filebrowserImageUploadUrl : '/test/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Images',
      filebrowserFlashUploadUrl : '/test/ckfinder/core/connector/php/connector.php?command=QuickUpload&type=Flash'
   });
</script>                  
...
</body>

CKFinder/config,php

$baseUrl = '/userfiles/';
$baseDir = resolveUrl($baseUrl);

I've done all I can from a fresh install, changing only the ckfinder/config.php file.
I need your help.
Thank you,
Antonio

Update: I've tried on another computer and the issue remains.

Apologies for late reply. I'd say that there is a slight chance that you've made a mistake in the PHP configuration file. If you PM it to me, I can check where's the problem.

Re: CKFinder creates 3-chars long folders / wrong path

The only changes I've made in my CKFinder config.php are those I've given in a previous post:

$baseUrl = '/userfiles/';
$baseDir = resolveUrl($baseUrl);

Thanks for your answer.

Re: CKFinder creates 3-chars long folders / wrong path

If you set $baseDir to the absolute path on you server, CKFinder should properly upload files into the right place:

$baseDir = 'E:/Docs/web/Test/web/userfiles/';

There is always a slight chance that the resolveUrl function will not work in PHP due to a non-standard server configuration, always in such case it's better to specify the correct path manually instead.
