For more information, refer to the section Creating an IP-based Site of Parallels Pro Control Panel for Linux 10.3.4 Quick Start Tutorial for Service Provider at Parallels Pro Control Panel documentation page.

  15. Parallels Pro Control Panel supports the Python version that is packaged with the operating system you install on the server. You can upgrade Python to updates released by the operating system at any time, however, you must not upgrade Python to a version that is not supported by the operating system you installed on the server.
  16. Parallels Pro Control Panel does not support InnoDB tables with MySQL databases. Importing sites that have InnoDB tables causes the process to fail with errors.

    rndc reload
    service named restart

  19. The Parallels Pro Control Panel services fail on FC 6 servers, because of dependencies issues of the kernel-xen RPM. Solution: To resolve the issue, ensure that the virtualization option is not selected while installing Fedora Core 6.
