Hi,
Hmm. Could you try adding tesseract to your PATH? How did you install
Tesseract? You should be able to do a straightforward `sudo apt-get install
tesseract-ocr`. After that, the OCR tests should pass. We're still running
into TIKA-1422, where a mail test fails. But, you can run just the OCR
tests with `mvn test -Dtest=org.apache.tika.parser.ocr.TesseractOCRTest
-DfailIfNoTests=false`.
Let me know if that works for you!
