As an experiment try

restoredefaultpath; rehash toolboxcache

and try again.

Do you have a function you've created named settings.m? Does the command below show just one item (in a subdirectory under toolbox/matlab) or multiple items (including some of your own functions outside toolbox/matlab)?
which -all settings
/MATLAB/toolbox/matlab/configtools/settings.m
If this shows other settings.m files outside toolbox/matlab, try renaming them.
