The problem arises because of the following line in setup-form.pl
$setupURL = "\$http$ENV{SCRIPT_NAME}";
For you, it appears that $ENV{'SCRIPT_NAME'} is the absolute
path to the script. For us, and most other folks, it appears,
we get a full path (starting with '/') relative to the server
root. A couple other problems may arise in the setup process
due to this inconsistency. What server are you using, by the way.
You could hardcode this to assign the right URL.
Or, better yet a relative URL would work just fine. Change that
whole block of code to be:
#====================================
# Compute whether to use .pl or .cgi suffix
$plorcgi = '';
if ($ENV{'SCRIPT_NAME'} =~ m,\.cgi$,) {
$plorcgi = "CHECKED";
}
if ($plorcgi)
$setupURL = 'setup.cgi';
} else {
$setupURL = 'setup.pl';
}

SCRIPT_NAME inconsistency 
No end of problems, from my perspective anyway
