NoClassDefFoundError PDFParser OSGi

[Stefan Burger]

Hi,

I'm new at TIKA and also on this mailing list.

I use the TIKA 0.6 bundle under eclipse to extract metadata from files and it 
works with all kind of files except PDFs. 
I get the error message below. 
The code was tested with several PDF's. Also, I tested the PDF's with an older 
program, which is working under TIKA 0.5. And there the PDFs can be read. 

Can anybody help me?

All regards
Stefan
