[jira] [Comment Edited] (TIKA-1877) On updating the tika-mimetypes.xml to detect .fts file format, tika detector does not return anything

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1877?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15170969#comment-15170969 ]

I also noted this same issue.. 
>From the descriptions on the .fits file format, looks like there are 20 spaces from "=" to "T".  Tika parser is behaving the same now.
<match value="SIMPLE  =                    T" type="string" offset="0"/>

If we check the file that has been classified as octet-stream, we see that there are 16 spaces between "=" and "T". (That is why it is getting classified as octet-stream and not application/fits.

The question then would be , if the files( like the ones attached, that has 16 spaces) need to be classified into application/fits? As the file is similar to a fits file which is already classified as application/fits.

> The match value for .fts file format in tika-mimetypes.xml is "SIMPLE  =                    T".
> Tika detected a .fts file as application/octet-stream. On verifying the header I found the value to be "SIMPLE  =                T"(just 16 spaces before = and T)
> I tried the following changes-
> Change 1) Updated the existing match value. But the build failed 
> Change 2) Added a new match value <match value="SIMPLE  =                T" type="string" offset="0"/> after the existing one.
> But now, tika returns empty value. It neither identifies the file as .fts nor as application/octet-stream.
