Trying To Access Developments Site Panel But Get Incorrect Url

General General Questions
1

Hi,

I have created a duplicate of my website in a subfolder

www.mysite.com/dev

but when i try to access the development site admin panel an extra sub directory is added to the url

so it reads

www.mysite.com/dev/dev/admin.php

it should only read www.mysite.com/dev/admin.php

Any ideas why this is happening. I have ensure that the config.local.php file reads 

$config['http_host'] = 'www.mysite.com/dev';

and that the 

// Names of index files for the frontend and backend
$config['customer_index'] = 'index.php';
$config['admin_index']    = 'admin.php';

I have also made sure that the .htacess file is blank so that it isn't redirecting anything?

Any help would be appreciated

thanks

It should be like this:

// Host and directory where software is installed on no-secure server
$config['http_host'] = 'www.mysite.com';
$config['http_path'] = '/dev';
