The issue resolved by deleting the <snapshotVersions> block from the specified XML file.
From: Chris Harrell Sent: Tuesday, April 12, 2011 4:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Unable to build SVN snapshot I've been using Tika 0.9 for about a week and absolutely love it. One issue I noticed was that Tika ignored column division when parsing text from a PDF which was hampering my project. After a quick search I noticed that there was a commit to fix this. Anyhow, I got the source downloaded and ran 'mvn -e clean install' and got the following. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. There is more than what I pasted below but it all essentially is complaining about a missing xml file in a very odd location. Who knows, I may be missing more! I simply checked out the SVN to my machine.
