Hi guys I've just built and installed tika as described in [1] and now I want to use it. I've tried java -jar ./tika-0.2.jar
But I get: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/Layout Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.log4j.Layout at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run (URLClassLoader.java:200) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged (Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass (URLClassLoader.java:188) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass (ClassLoader.java:307) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass (Launcher.java:301) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass (ClassLoader.java:252) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal (ClassLoader.java:320) Could not find the main class: org.apache.tika.cli.TikaCLI. Program will exit. I think it's somehow because java can't find the maven files. Can somebody give me a hint on how to get tika running. I've already searched the web for some maven howtos but I can't find a plain "just use the thing"-howto. Only those dealing about how to get maven into eclipse. but I dont want to use eclipse right. I just want to use the CLI for now. thanks in advance - Daniel [1] http://lucene.apache.org/tika/gettingstarted.html
