Tika parser is unable to startup [Warn Failed to see Startup Log...] #211

Closed frogeyedpeas closed 5 years ago

frogeyedpeas commented 5 years ago

Primary Problem: whenever I try to instantiate the parser some error involving warning logs appears and the code just dies:

018-12-30 01:37:29,263 [MainThread ] [WARNI] Failed to see startup log message; retrying...

And some external java process lives on in my dock, (I have screen shotted the icon and attached).

The exact code I have is the [following:]

screen shot 2018-12-30 at 1 42 11 am 
     from tika import parser
     path='./pdfs/'
     raw = parser.from_file(path)

I have tried running this code with SUDO, and updating my java version all to no avail.

System Details:

I'm using Mac OS X El Capital Version 10.11.5, with oh-my-zsh as my terminal And python 3.6

java version "1.8.0_191" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_191-b12) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.191-b12, mixed mode)

I know this is closed, but how did you fix it? I am getting the same issue.

@bradyschaer hi, actually readme has mentioned the preset for environment variables.
What you should do is to setup TIKA_LOG_PATH with a directory that owns write-permissions.

e.g. :

# bash
export TIKA_LOG_PATH=/Users/to/my/dir/that/could/write
