Forgive me if I'm misjudging the case, but it sounds as though you have NOT read the instructions. If you had, you would know that doc2html does not require the commercial converter wp2html. It can be used with the freeware catdoc, though wp2html should give better results.
You should also know that parse_doc.pl requires catdoc and does not work without it. Have you installed catdoc?
