You shouldn't do that. IIRC, moin uses "modern" as fallback if something 
goes wrong loading a requested theme.

If you want to force some specific theme, better use theme_force in your 
configuration.

Maybe you didn't remove it from the right place. The right place is 
where your web server serves the URL <url_prefix> (see your wiki config, 
usually it is /wiki).
