----------------------------------
I'm not sure if that should be an option, or if it's OK to change the default?
> JAX-RS server only responds to queries to/from http://localhost

> Key: TIKA-1196
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1196
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: server
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Environment: Mac OS X, Windows Server 2008
> Reporter: Rian Stockbower
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: JAXRS, hostname, web-service
> Attachments: tika-1196.patch

> I'm not sure if this is a problem with the Tika JAX-RS server, or with how it
> uses CXF under the hood. Anyway:
> I have a large text extraction job (10-15 million documents) that I'm using
> the web service for. It would be nice to be able to distribute this
> horizontally across multiple nodes to speed up the processing. I had thought
> to have a job queue with a couple consumers, farming out PUT requests across
> several Tika web service endpoints.
> But the JAX-RS web service will only respond to queries made to
> {{http://localhost:9998/tika}}.
> I can't call {{http://hostname:9998/tika}} -- even if it's still a local
> operation.
> Here is a list of things I've tried:
> * I changed line 89 of TikaServerCLI.java to compute the name of the host at
> runtime. No go: the server starts up, and immediately terminates.
> * I changed line 89 of TikaServerCLI.java to be a hostname (not a FQDN), and
> re-compiled:
> ** {{mvn compile -rf :tika-server}} compiles successfully. Start up the
> server, and it terminates, just like when I tried to compute the hostname at
> runtime
> ** {{mvn install}} from the topmost Tika directory gets the service
> responding to both {{http://hostname:9998/tika}} and
> {{http://hostname.domain.net:9998/tika}} (Seemed weird, this is why I was
> thinking it was further up the chain in CXF?)
> In a perfect world:
> # The server should respond to any valid calls that make sense:
> #* 127.0.0.1
> #* localhost
> #* hostname
> #* host.domain.tld
> #* ip_address
> # A {{hostname}} invocation parameter could be used to limit what the service
> responds to when it's started up. (A very optional, nice-to-have.)
