Warning, the Safe Path is not accessible

[alexwalker]

Warning, the Safe Path is not accessible (does not exist or no permission), for safety reasons it is very important to create a folder in a path not accessible by an URL, create also a folder invoices in it to store your sensitive data secure. Our suggested path is for your system /home/basecamp/vmfiles, use this link to the config

I am running Joomla 2.5.9
Virtuemart 2.0.20b
PHP 5.3.19
Admintools installed

I have created directories in home/basecamp/vmfiles/ (outside public_html where Joomla is installed) and made an exception to these directories when creating the htaccess file in admintools

I cannt get rid of this message. Any ideas how I can?

Is the full server path set in Config/Templates? What happens without the .haccess?
