I've recently installed Radicore and have most of the bugs worked out. However, when I try to login (with either the server or client-side options) I receive the following in IE 6.0:
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
Access is denied. Error processing resource 'https:///radicore/xsl/std.detail1.xsl'.
In Firefox the code is simply displayed. Is this a rights issue? Have I not set my rights properly in the filesystem? I've tried to set the minimum for security purposes, so I may not have done everything correctly.
You can see my live site here: https://secure.ivado.com/radicore/

In Firefox, it renders everything in HTML/text, like so (but in a browser it appears to render all on the same line):
HTTPS://www.ivado.comwww.ivado.com/radicore/style_default.cs s
HTTPS://www.ivado.com/radicore/menu/style_custom.css
LOGIN
Try user_id= 'mgr', password='password'
HTTPS://www.ivado.com/radicore/menu/logon.php
menu0
Logon screen

Page

NEXT

select all
unselect all
logout
logout (all)
new session

print
noprint
You are logged in as:

true
logon
logon
HTTP://www.ivado.com/radicore/menu
HTTP://www.ivado.com/radicore
0.0307
Like you I noticed the path problem, so I did set the $GLOBALS['https_server'] and $GLOBALS['https_server_suffix'] in my CONFIG.INC file to 'www.ivado.com' I'm not sure, however, if this is correct. Even with those entries I get the error.
Also, I checked access to the website from two completely different networks; access seems ok. I will, however, look in the webserver logs (and check my firewall) to see if anything is amiss.

If your secure server is HTTPS://www.ivado.com/ and your normal server is HTTP://www.ivado.com/ then you should set your CONFIG.INC as follows:
$GLOBALS['http_server'] = 'www.ivado.com';
$GLOBALS['https_server'] = 'www.ivado.com';
$GLOBALS['https_server_suffix'] = '';
This allows the secure server to be something different like 'secure.ivado.com'
$GLOBALS['https_server_suffix'] is only used if you use a shared server which requires an additional suffix to identify the account. For example, I currently use 'rocket.secureguards.com' as my secure server but this requires a suffix of '/~radicore' to identify the individual account name on that shared host.

Ok, setting $GLOBALS['http_server'] = ''; and $GLOBALS['https_server'] = 'secure.ivado.com'; fixed the problem (http_server is blank because this server ONLY hosts https://secure.ivado.com).
Which in itself poses another problem, as many links within the application want to navigate to an "http" link, which on this particular server doesn't exist. This server ONLY hosts https://secure.ivado.com
Is there any way to get around this?
Also, I had to drop and recreate the 'audit' table (certain permission errors, etc., very weird). After doing so, however, I cannot login with mgr/password (I'm giving a "Security Violation" error).
Sorry for all of the problems. Having a heck of time getting this to install, but I really think it'll be worth it.

It is not standard practice to have an entire website accessed through HTTPS. It is normal to use HTTP for everything except those pages which *must* be secured, in which case HTTPS is used. Radicore follows this convention by assuming everything is HTTP *unless* it has to be HTTPS. A website is either HTTP only or mostly HTTP with some HTTPS.
Instead of trying to install and evaluate this software on a remote server over which you obviously have no control, why don't you do what everyone else does and install it on your own local PC? This would be the best way to develop, test and debug any applications you intend to write.
I do not understand why deleting and recreating the AUDIT database would cause a login error. This is only caused when the user_id/password entered on the screen does not match what is in the USER table. The AUDIT database is not accessed until *after* the logon credentials have been successfully validated.

Is there any particular reason for that? Sites are usually HTTP only or HTTP with some HTTPS, not HTTPS only.
Radicore assumes HTTP for everything, with HTTPS reserved for selected pages. If a secure page receives a request via HTTP then Radicore will execute header("location: HTTPS://....") to redirect. If a non-secure page receives a request via HTTPS then it is redirected to HTTP.
