Hi Sebfiesta,
It's likely that you just need to explicitly set your config filename in the EA parameters. Please check out this FAQ article for more:

Hi Sebfiesta,
All EAs that are run in Metatrader can only write to a designated folder that Metatrader decides.
When running an EA on a chart, this folder will be:
(In Metatrader) File->Open Data Folder then browse to MQL4/Files.
If running in the MT4 Strategy Tester, the folder will be:
(In Metatrader) File->Open Data Folder then browse to tester/files.
Hope this helps.
