This makes no sense.

Either you connect a valid oopic parallel programming cable to the PC
printer port, LPTx, and connect to the the 5-pin PRG header on the
oopic board, and use the OOPic IDE parallel-programming mode,

OR

You connect a straight-through wired serial [modem] cable to a PC
RS232 port, COMx, and connect it to the DB09 connector on the oopic
board, and use the OOPic IDE serial-programming mode.

Saying you're using a "simple parallel-to-serial adaptor" is neither
of these.
