Josh Burchard updated TIKA-3141:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
On my Linux box I configure Tika using the TIKA_CONFIG environment variable to 
point the Tika server at my config.xml file.   Sometimes, however, I want to 
clear this variable to use the default config and I noticed that Tika will 
throw an exception and abort if I do the following:

export TIKA_CONFIG=''

Seems like a case that should be handled just by ignoring the empty value 
(i.e., there's no config to be used so go with the default)  or at the most, 
log a warning that the variable was detected but it's value is empty, but still 
carry on using the default config.

{{Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to access 
default configuration}}
 \{{ at 
org.apache.tika.config.TikaConfig.getDefaultConfig(TikaConfig.java:410)}}
 \{{ at org.apache.tika.Tika.<init>(Tika.java:116)}}
 \{{ at org.apache.tika.server.TikaServerCli.main(TikaServerCli.java:125)}}
 {{*Caused by: org.apache.tika.exception.TikaException: Specified Tika 
configuration not found:*}}
 \{{ at 
org.apache.tika.config.TikaConfig.getConfigInputStream(TikaConfig.java:317)}}
 \{{ at org.apache.tika.config.TikaConfig.<init>(TikaConfig.java:254)}}

org.apache.tika.config.TikaConfig.getDefaultConfig(TikaConfig.java:405)}}
