Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:40573 pavelevap]:
 > `$script_filename_dir . '/'` == `$abspath_fix` ==
 `/data/web/virtuals/160423/virtual/www/domains/domain.cz/`

 > But `$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']` is `/domains/domain.cz/index.php`

 It looks like your host has an invalid value in `PHP_SELF` - based on your
 description of the URLs it should only contain `/index.php` according to
 the PHP Documentation:
 http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php#refsect1-reserved.variables
 .server-indices

 Ideally this should be brought to the attention of the web-host before
 WordPress attempts any form of work around here, as it's common practice
 for other PHP scripts to use something similar to `<form action="<?php
 echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">` (please don't do that kids, I'm fairly
 sure that'll introduce security implications)

 Have you contacted your web-host about this yet? What did they say?
