[jira] Updated: (NUTCH-797) parse-tika is not properly constructing URLs when the target begins with a ?
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-797?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Andrzej Bialecki updated NUTCH-797: Attachment: pureQueryUrl-2.patch Updated patch with some refactoring and unit tests. If no objections I'll commit this shortly. parse-tika is not properly constructing URLs when the target begins with a ? -- Key: NUTCH-797 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-797 Project: Nutch Issue Type: Bug Components: parser Affects Versions: 1.1 Environment: Win 7, Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_16-b01) Also repro's on RHEL and java 1.4.2 Reporter: Robert Hohman Priority: Minor Attachments: pureQueryUrl-2.patch, pureQueryUrl.patch This is my first bug and patch on nutch, so apologies if I have not provided enough detail. In crawling the page at http://careers3.accenture.com/Careers/ASPX/Search.aspx?co=0sk=0 there are links in the page that look like this: a href=?co=0sk=0p=2pi=12/a/tdtda href=?co=0sk=0p=3pi=13/a in org.apache.nutch.parse.tika.DOMContentUtils rev 916362 (trunk), as getOutlinks looks for links, it comes across this link, and constucts a new url with a base URL class built from http://careers3.accenture.com/Careers/ASPX/Search.aspx?co=0sk=0;, and a target of ?co=0sk=0p=2pi=1 The URL class, per RFC 3986 at http://labs.apache.org/webarch/uri/rfc/rfc3986.html#relative-merge, defines how to merge these two, and per the RFC, the URL class merges these to: http://careers3.accenture.com/Careers/ASPX/?co=0sk=0p=2pi=1 because the RFC explicitly states that the rightmost url segment (the Search.aspx in this case) should be ripped off before combining. While this is compliant with the RFC, it means the URLs which are created for the next round of fetching are incorrect. Modern browsers seem to handle this case (I checked IE8 and Firefox 3.5), so I'm guessing this is an obscure exception or handling of what is a poorly formed url on accenture's part. I have fixed this by modifying DOMContentUtils to look for the case where a ? begins the target, and then pulling the rightmost component out of the base and inserting it into the target before the ?, so the target in this example becomes: Search.aspx?co=0sk=0p=2pi=1 The URL class then properly constructs the new url as: http://careers3.accenture.com/Careers/ASPX/Search.aspx?co=0sk=0p=2pi=1 If it is agreed that this solution works, I believe the other html parsers in nutch would need to be modified in a similar way. Can I get feedback on this proposed solution? Specifically I'm worried about unforeseen side effects.
