Microsoft Outlook (msg) files get parsed 50 times in TikaGUI

["Jana, Kumar Raja" <kj...@ptc.com>]

Hi,

 

I was feeding various document formats to the TikaGUI tool and found
that Microsoft Outlook (msg) files get parsed around 50 times!!!

 

Did anyone else face the same issue? Is there any setting that I might
have overlooked?

 

Thanks,

Kumar

OK. This is probably some issue with the Outlook parser from POI or
with the way we use it in Tika.

Unfortunately the mailing list filters seem to have stripped the
attachment. Can you file a bug report about this in Jira and attach
the example mail there?

Hi Jukka,

Thanks for the quick reply.
I see 50 copies of the content in the extracted text output. I have
attached a sample Outlook (msg) file to this mail (which happens to be a
mail from you to the dev group). Hope it helps.

Thanks again,
Kumar

Hmm, that's quite a lot... How does this "50 times" appear, do you get
50 copies of the message content in the extracted text output? Do you
have an example file that you could share with us?
