[jira] [Commented] (CONNECTORS-1459) Tika service wrong Content-Type

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1459?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16180331#comment-16180331 ] 

Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-1459:
-----------------------------------------

Hi [~julienFL], the only concern I have is this:

{code}
+                    document.setMimeType(metadataValue);
{code}

The mime type we send down the chain from the transformer should represent the content in the data stream.  Since that's been extracted by Tika already, it should *not* be what was discovered by Tika, but rather "text/plain".

> I noticed that the standard behaviour of the Tika extractor connector is to replace the existing "Content-Type" metadata by the one it founds. This behaviour is not implemented in the Tika service connector which just adds a new metadata entry instead of replacing the existing one. The consequence is that two values are available for the "Content-Type" metadata but only the first one is kept by the connector (which can also be considered as a bug ? this is the case for both the Tika extractor connector and the Tika service connector).
> So depending on the source connector, the resulting "Content-Type" may be wrong if for example the original provided one is "application/octet-stream"
> I will provide a patch for this bug
