Andrew Jackson commented on TIKA-1154:
--------------------------------------
Thanks for the stacktrace, which lead me to this mailing list entry:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tika-dev/201011.mbox/%[email protected]%3E
which suggest that upgrading Xerces will fix this.

> We are using Tika on large web archives, which also happen to contain some
> malformed files. In particular, we found a HTML file with binary characters
> in the DOCTYPE declaration. This hangs Tika, either embedded or from the
> command line, during format detection.
> An example file is attached.
