After transferring Joomla site, I can't install extensions

I updated a Joomla website for a customer of mine. I did this in XAMPP. Now, when transferring it to the server, I have some problems. I can't install extensions anymore and I get the message:

JFolder::create: Infinite loop detected
Warning: Failed to move file!

After some reading I found out it's possibly caused by the log and tmp folder, but I don't know how to rename them to work. (The link to them in the config.php file)

public_html > tmp / log (both tmp and log are in the main directory of public_html)

How would I set them up to work? And is it definitely this that is causing this error?

You can actually edit those values using Joomla's back-end. Go to global configuration settings menu option, one of the text fields is in the Server tab and the other is in the System tab. If you can, put the full directory path of the server in for the values.
