Tim Allison resolved TIKA-3141.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> LINUX - Tika shouldn't throw an exception for an empty TIKA_CONFIG
> environment variable value
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-3141
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-3141
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: config
> Affects Versions: 1.20
> Environment: Any Linux distro. I'm running the bash shell. Not sure
> about other platforms.
> Reporter: Josh Burchard
> Priority: Trivial
> Original Estimate: 24h
> Remaining Estimate: 24h
>
> On my Linux box I configure Tika using the TIKA_CONFIG environment variable
> to point the Tika server at my config.xml file. Sometimes, however, I want
> to clear this variable to use the default config and I noticed that Tika will
> throw an exception and abort if I do the following:
> export TIKA_CONFIG=''
> Seems like a case that should be handled just by ignoring the empty value
> (i.e., there's no config to be used so go with the default) or at the most,
> log a warning that the variable was detected but it's value is empty, but
> still carry on using the default config.
> {{Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to access
> default configuration}}
