Yours is installed in a subdirectory 'forum" while I install mine directly to the domain, so you might have an extra section to your data root
WWW Root:
This is the URL of your forum.: http://domain.name/
WWW Root (disk path):
The directory where the forum's web browseable files are stored (*.php, images, etc.). : /home/user/domain.name/
(This is where your /adm and Index.php is, it is also where your second globals is)
Data Root:
The directory where the forum's data files are stored (cache, backups, and other data).
/home/user/forum/
(this is where cache, errors, sql etc are)

I don't think so but don't quote me on that I'm just not that technically proficient!
(I believe the /adm globals are just for when using the admin panel)
I've encountered this problem before but I don't remember how I got there or how I fixed it.....
All I'm trying to do now is nail down the location of your globals in relation to your host specific directory structure and installation, after we've done that we can take the next step and start recreating your forum from scratch and make the updates changes you wanted without damaging your forum!
Next check Mailing List, Newsgroup , XML Aggregation etc for any setting that may be there or that you will need/want to include.
Ensure that you have privileges to create a new subdirectory and database on the host, if not we will work around that.

If you installed to a subdomain it should be/show just how your globals path was originally installed wouldn't it? I know it's the biggest hammer approach but it's the only sure way I know without mussing up your forum.
Sure it's a pain and the second install has to be deleted. But it's a small price to pay for the information needed; off hand I'm still guessing this is a host issue.

No! But it will allow you to work without disturbing the others.
Personally I always worry about making a mistake I can't recover from, and with my skill level this is the best way I've found to deal with it until I learn better....
At any rate everything I see so far tells me your problem exists with how you are installed on the host system, so perhaps creating a sub-domain and a temp install might clarify it in your mind what the problem is.
I'd bet dollars to donuts that your host uses a standard c-panel and you are somehow mis-configured on it. I really wish I knew how to tell you to switch it off or correct it but I can't.

Clarify? That's a really big question pips, really it is! I've used at least 6 different hosts and everyone has done things somewhat differently!
If you were installed direct to a domain with a standard c-panel I would expect to see a set up like this:
WWW Root: http://Domain.name/
WWW Root (disk path): /home/User/public_html/ NOTE#(public_html = Domain.name in some other hosts )
Data Root: /home/User/FUDforum/
As long as it goes by the hints in the acp it shouldn't be a problem.
Since you are set on a sub-directory of /forum that needs to be added, one thing that may be a problem is the symlink for the global.
I've never had much luck dealing with them, so I hope you understand them.
Your host help should have some info.
