Installing the Add-ons (optional)

This section includes the instructions for installing optional add-ons using the command line.

To install the add-ons using the command line:

1. Connect to the Parallels Pro Control Panel server using the console or terminal services and log in as the administrator.
2. If you have downloaded the installation files, locate and copy the following files in a temporary directory.
   • Parallels Pro Coldfusion Addon.10.3.4.msi
   • Parallels Pro Urchin Addon.10.3.4.msi
   • Parallels Pro Mysql Addon.10.3.4.msi
3. Open a command prompt window and change to the directory where all the
   installation files mentioned above are located.
4. Before installing the add-on for ColdFusion MX 6.1, perform the following tasks:
   • Ensure that you have installed ColdFusion MX 6.1 on your Parallels Pro Control Panel 10.3.4 server. For information about downloading and installing ColdFusion MX 6.1, go to Coldfusion Web site.

     Important: If you have installed Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1) on the Parallels Pro Control Panel server, then the ColdFusion MX 6.1 installer fails. For instructions on resolving this issue, go to ColdFusion Web site.

   • After installing ColdFusion MX 6.1, ensure that the Master Properties sheet in Internet Information Services (IIS) on your Parallels Pro Control Panel 10.3.4 server does not have ColdFusion script maps. For more information on ColdFusion script maps, see the note Installing the ColdFusion add-on.
5. Install the ColdFusion MX 6.1 add-on using the following command.

   msiexec /l*v <full_path_of_log_file> /i "Parallels Pro Coldfusion Addon.10.3.4.msi" /qn

   where <full_path_of_log_file> is the location where you want to save the log file for the installation. For example, C:\coldfusion.log. After the installation is complete, check the log file to verify that the add-on installed successfully.

6. Before installing the add-on for Urchin 5.x, ensure that you have installed Urchin 5.x on your Parallels Pro Control Panel 10.3.4 server. For information about installing and downloading Urchin 5.x, refer to Urchin Web site .
7. Install the Urchin 5.x add-on using the following command.

   msiexec /l*v <full_path_of_log_file> /i "Parallels Pro Urchin Addon.10.3.4.msi" /qn

   where <full_path_of_log_file> is the location where you want to save the log file for the installation. For example, C:\urchin.log. After the installation is complete, check the log file to verify that the add-on installed successfully.

8. Before installing the add-on for MySQL, ensure that you have installed the following software on your Parallels Pro Control Panel server:
   • MySQL 4.1 or 5.0: For information about downloading and installing the latest version of MySQL, that is, version 5.0, go to MySQl Web site.
   • While installing MySQL 5.0, ensure that you accept the default options in the installation wizard except for the following:

     MySQL Server Instance Configuration window:

     • Select the Server Machine option.
     • Select the Non-Transactional Database Only option.
     • Clear the Enable Strict Mode check box.
     • Select the Best Support For Multilingualism option.
     • Select the Include Bin Directory in Windows PATH check box.
   • MyODBC 3.51: For information about downloading and installing MyODBC 3.51, go to MySQL Web site. Install MyODBC 3.51 using the default options.

     Note: Since the password encryption is different in MySQL 4.1 and 5.0 than its previous versions, you cannot access the database using phpMyAdmin 2.x provided with Parallels Pro Control Panel. To change this password encryption to support phpMyAdmin 2.x:
     After installing MySQL 4.1 or 5.0 on the server, go to the directory where MySQL is installed. If you have installed MySQL in the default location, then the path is C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server <version_no>, where <version_no> is the version of MySQL. For example, C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 4.1.
     Open the my.ini file present in this directory, type old-passwords in the [mysqld] section, save the file, and close it.
     Open a command window, and run the following commands:
     net stop mysql
net start mysql
     PhpMyAdmin 2.x can now be used to access MySQL 4.1 or 5.0. You can now proceed to installing the MySQL add-on as described below.

9. Install the MySQL add-on using the following command.

   msiexec /l*v <full_path_of_log_file> /i "Parallels Pro Mysql Addon.10.3.4.msi" /qn ROOTPASSWORD="<MySQL_root_password>"

   where:

   • <full_path_of_log_file> is the location where you want to save the log file for the installation. For example, C:\mysqlinstaller.log.
   • <MySQL_root_password > is the root password set during MySQL 4.1 or 5.0 installation. If you have not set any root password for MySQL, then the value of <MySQL_root_password> should be null, that is, ROOTPASSWORD=""

     After the installation is complete, check the log file specified above to verify that the add-on installed successfully.

The add-on installation is complete.
