Hi,

To be absolutely sure that only Tika is used you should also remove the
parse-html plugin from plugin.includes. Make sure all references to the
parse-html plugin are removed from the parse-plugins.xml. (Looking at your
snippet it seems as this is the case).

With Tika itself or Boilerpipe I'm not really familiar. (Mostly I use
parse-html.)

Ferdy.
