Pages with no ContentType cause a Null Pointer exception
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: NUTCH-531
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-531
Project: Nutch
Issue Type: Bug
Components: fetcher
Affects Versions: 0.9.0, 1.0.0
Reporter: Carl Cerecke
Some pages cause a null pointer exception because the contentType is missing
(e.g. http://www.absoluteit.co.nz and http://defence.allmedia.co.nz)
The solution that I used was to change line 165 (trunk) of Content.java to:
Text.writeString(out, contentType != null?contentType:"");
rfc2616 states this should be application/octet-stream if we don't know the
content type, and can't figure it out.
But perhaps the problem is in getContentType() at line 281 (trunk). I don't yet
know enough of how it is connected together to determine where the best place
for fixing this bug is.
