[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-1122) Tika fails to parse chm files

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1122?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13663092#comment-13663092 ] 

Nick Burch commented on TIKA-1122:
----------------------------------

The mimetype detected for the file doesn't seem to match the one listed by the parser. Do you know which one is correct? And could you try changing the parser to claim to support the one detection gives, to see if that solves it?

> (reported by Jan Riewe over nutch user group, see http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/CHM-Files-and-Tika-td3999735.html)
> Nutch fails to parse chm files with
> ERROR tika.TikaParser - Can't retrieve Tika parser for mime-type application/vnd.ms-htmlhelp
> Even after running tika-app in standalone manner (ie. not via nutch), I could see not even a single chm file being parsed (I tried with 10-15 different chm files of variable sizes).
