Hello There,

We have had a problem with tika-app-0.9.jar when it comes to using Microsoft 
documents (we do not have issues with PDFs and images). It creates tika files 
which are held by our weblogic java process.

For example, if one runs the command :- lsof -p 27305|grep deleted

java      27305  oracle  330r      REG              253,1   295674         68 
/tmp/apache-tika-5125182301796025972.tmp (deleted)
java      27305  oracle  334r      REG              253,1   272896         69 
/tmp/apache-tika-8997882426533237375.tmp (deleted)
java      27305  oracle  335r      REG              253,1   295674         78 
/tmp/apache-tika-5232377327199509251.tmp (deleted)
java      27305  oracle  336r      REG              253,1    45327         43 
/tmp/apache-tika-6884061409786039638.tmp (deleted)
java      27305  oracle  339r      REG              253,1   272895         41 
/tmp/apache-tika-6752501215118342524.tmp (deleted)
java      27305  oracle  340r      REG              253,1   272895         41 
/tmp/apache-tika-6752501215118342524.tmp (deleted)
java      27305  oracle  341r      REG              253,1    45327         75 
/tmp/apache-tika-7548218713808428132.tmp (deleted)

The above is a long list of held tika files from Microsoft docs in deleted 
state but they are still handled by the weblogic process.

The only way we can get these tika files closed or released is by restarting 
the weblogic server.

This cost us money as we had to stop the server to get rid of the tika files 
filling up our tmp folder.

We have had this issue for almost 3 years now. I have been researching on the 
web to see if there are solutions out there in an upgraded tika-jar but it 
seems there are none.

I was thinking it will be resolved in an upgraded jar file but it seems that is 
not the case.

Please is there any solution to this issue?
