Joseph,

You're right. Somehow, /nifi-tika-1.0.1.jar/ is not found among the myriad JARs under /META-INF/bundle//d-dependen//c//ies/ in the NAR. I thought I'd seen it in there, but I had not looked hard enough. I'll have to revisit another (working) /pom.xml/ to see how that's stuffed into it (mysterious since all the other dependencies got in).

Yes, I had once found a later version of the /nifi-nar-plugin/ and tried it (because I tend to go with the latest tools for things like this), but without success so I went back to this one, the /1.0.1-incubating/ plug-in, which is the one we started using at the beginning (about 18 months ago) and have always used.

Thanks very much for the second pair of eyes. I will insist upon checking for this in my up-coming post, etc.

Russ

Can you share the content of
your  /src/main/resources/META-INF/services/org.apache.nifi.processor.Processor
file?

You also have this entry in some pom's which I dont have in my NAR projects.

<build><plugins><plugin>
<!-- What builds the NAR file... -->
<groupId>org.apache.nifi</groupId>
<artifactId>nifi-nar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0.1-incubating</version>
<extensions>true</extensions>
</plugin></plugins></build>

Thanks! I'll write some kind of blog post on this once we figure it out.

Thanks, I have tried this on both Firefox and Chrome. (I'm on Linux.) This
is a very perplexing problem because it's so simple. I'm happy to make
available /pom.xml/ files and/or the NAR.

Just a simple idea, but try clearing your browser cache out and reloading
the entire canvas. I have had some funny behaviours before with a stale
cache not seeing anything.

I've built a NAR containing a custom processor that loads in NiFi, but
the

processor cannot be found. At the top of /TikaProcessor.java/, I have,
among other annotations, this:

@Tags( { "tika" } )

I've tried a number of things to solve this, like making it the only
NAR
besides just the set NiFi 1.1.1 ships with, and wiping out all flows
down
to a blank canvas. I tried removing SNAPSHOT from its version. *I see
this
in **/logs/nifi-app.log/*: This is the only reference to it in any log,
but
it does make me think that it's loaded:

2017-03-28 15:24:20,226 INFO [main] org.apache.nifi.nar.NarClassLo
aders
Loaded NAR file: /home/russ/dev/nifi/nifi-1.1.1
/./work/nar/extensions/nifi-tika-1.0.1.nar-unpacked as class loader
org.apache.nifi.nar.NarClassLoader[./work/nar/extensions/
nifi-tika-1.0.1.nar-unpacked]

In /resources/META_INF/services/, /org.apache.nifi.processor.Pro
cessor/
contains:

/com.imatsolutions.nifi.processor.TikaProcessor/

    I have a separate, very large project with many custom processors
all
of
which load fine (and I've used this one before. In fact, the only thing
I've done is remove this long-working processor from a larger set.)
This
project is very small:

      nifi-tika
      +-- nar
      | +-- /nifi-tika-1.0.1.nar/
      |   `-- pom.xml (packaging is "nar")
      +-- pom.xml (packaging is "pom")
      `-- tika
           +-- pom.xml (packaging is "jar")
           +-- src (test, resources, etc. including
      /resources/META_INF/services/org.apache.nifi.p//rocessor.Pr
ocessor/)
           `-- target
               `-- /tika-1.0.1.jar/

I'm not certain what else to try. My /pom.xml/ files produce a NAR.
NiFi
appears to dignify it as a NAR. I keep retracing all the steps, but
cannot
figure out what I've missed.
