Here's a link to a comprehensive list of articles on the top:

Here is a post on Renntech that touches on various problems:
soft top stuck down clamshell wont open - 986 Boxster Top Issues and Solutions - RennTech.org Forums
The first steps I would take would be to check the fuses and the relay associated with the top. The fuse block cover has a diagram of the fuses and the top relay is the one that is twice as large as the others.
The next possibility I would check is the parking brake micro switch. Since your parking light is on, that may rule that out, but search the posts and see exactly what symptoms are associated with that problem.
Also, please post the model year of your car since the earlier cars had different components in the top and that might help someone to narrow the range of possible causes.
Good luck.
