You simply have to install missing packages. If you run on Fedora, as I guess reading your previous thread, You can simply do
or use the Add/Remove Software application, if you feel more comfortable with a graphical interface.

Hi Srinath,
Have you installed catdoc? I guess not. You fail to mention what distro your using but on a debian-based system, just do and once catdoc is installed try it again and it will work. The same goes for antiword. Install it in the same way as above (replacing catdoc by antiword in the command.
cheers,

Thanks

I'm sorry but I don't know PHP. I'd just suggest to update your LQ profile to include the name of the linux distribution you're running on, so that is easy to give the correct hints, even if you don't mention the distro in your post. You've received two different hints in this thread, one for a RPM based distro, like fedora or centos (these use yum to install packages from the command line), one for a DEB based distro like debian or ubuntu (these use apt-get or aptitude to install packages from the command line). Is it clear now why you received a "command not found" when you run aptitude?
