I regret that I'm not able to reproduce this...that is, this works for me;
@Test
public void oneOff() throws Exception {
System.setProperty("tika.config", "C:\\users\\talli\\myconfig.xml");
TikaConfig config = new TikaConfig();
AutoDetectParser parser = new AutoDetectParser(config);
assertContains("quick brown fox", getXML("testOCR_spacing.png",
parser).xml);
}
where myconfig.xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<properties>
<parsers>
<parser class="org.apache.tika.parser.DefaultParser">
</parser>
<parser class="org.apache.tika.parser.ocr.TesseractOCRParser">
<params>
<param name="tesseractPath" type="string">C:\Program
Files\Tesseract-OCR2</param>
<param name="tessdataPath" type="string">C:\Program
Files\Tesseract-OCR2\tessdata</param>
</params>
</parser>
</parsers>
</properties>
Whatever you set in your tessConfig will _override_ the underlying settings
of the parser...all of them. So, if you aren't setting the path there,
then, y, you won't see any effect.
