> Some XLS documents hang the entire JVM. A control-C or regular kill won't
> stop the JVM, a kill -9 is required.
> We're running within an email server application parsing documents to extract
> text of all attachments. When we hit a message with the affected attachment
> the entire JVM hangs and we mark the message to skip extracting the text from
> the affected message the next attempt. Unfortunately, it kills all email
> processing on the server until the internal watchdogs kill -9 the application.
> We have seen the issue for several months with different documents, but they
> are always Excel files. Some get complaints from Excel when opening but not
> all.
> In addition to experiencing the problem on our Linux servers I have tested on
> OSX and experienced the same problems. I ran the Tika UI and select the
> affected file or run the CLI. The problem is the same.
> Tested with java -jar /path/to/tika-app-1.3.jar -t /path/to/file.xls
> When running on multi-CPU machines there are two threads running at 100%
> every time.
> I have attached a document that triggers the error.
> I have tested with 1.2 and 1.3 with the same result. Running 1.1 the text is
> accurately extracted.
