I followed the CentOS guide located at http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Installing_Alfresco_Community_WAR_on_Centos_5 and the base installation installed correctly. Now I am just trying to configure the helper applications my current error from Alfresco is:

I can confirm that SWF Tools and ImageMagick are both installed and functional at /usr/bin/, but I am unsure how to inform Alfresco of this. I made a symbolic link to convert and mirrored the directory structure and stuck it in the likely places but no luck. Can someone either let me know where "./" is in reference to or how to change it?

Found the solution posted at http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Installing_Labs_3_Stable_on_Debian_Etch

repository.properties

You need to change the ImageMagick and pdf2swf paths in your configuration file.

joe /opt/Alfresco/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/repository.properties
Replace the corresponding lines with the following lines at the end of file:

img.root=/usr
swf.exe=/usr/local/bin/pdf2swf
