[jira] [Updated] (TIKA-1163) NPE thrown by TikaConfig.getDefaultConfig()

["Nick Burch (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1163?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Nick Burch updated TIKA-1163:
-----------------------------

    Attachment: TCT.java

TCT.java is a very simple Java app which ensures that "new Tika()" works. Instructions for compiling and running are in the header. This works fine on several machines for me, and might be useful for those with failures to identify where things fail for them

> The below exception gets thrown every time I execute TikaConfig.getDefaultConfig. Similary, invoking `Tika t = new Tika()` throws the same exception, since code inside this constructor invokes TikaConfig.getDefaultConfig().
> This problem is non-existent when I use Tika-core and Tika-parsers 1.0. But when bump the version numbers to 1.2 (in order to get around a bug in PDFBOX), the problem shows up. I'm using maven. I've carefully ensured that I'm not pulling in the wrong version of Tika, using things like `mvn dependency:tree` and making there were no sneaky problematic transitive dependencies.
