Nutch-1.2 came with tika-0.7, which version of tika are you trying to use? if you just added a new parser then it would be easier to ship it as a separate jar file. I assume that you did not have to modify anything in tika-core, so you could use the standard tika libs and simply add yours using Ivy. Nutch-1.3 (and 1.4 in SVN) contain a lot of improvements over 1.2 so it would be worth getting to the bottom of the issue you're encountering and get 1.3 to work. Moreover I am not sure that you can use a version of Tika > 0.7 on Nutch 1.2 without changing parts of the code (to be checked though) Julien -- * *Open Source Solutions for Text Engineering http://digitalpebble.blogspot.com/ http://www.digitalpebble.com
