Install some other utilities that are used in the Knowledge Base

yum install poppler-utils

Some of the indexing tools on RHEL/CentOS are not included in the default RHEL/CentOS repositories so, you need to add a new repo.

rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el6/en/x86_64/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.5.3-1.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm

yum install catdoc

yum install aspell

(may be already installed. Might need aspell-en which can be found here:

rpm -Uvh http://elders.princeton.edu/data/puias/6/x86_64/os/Addons/aspell-en-6.0-11.el6.x86_64.rpm
