Tejas Patil created NUTCH-1715: ---------------------------------- Summary: RobotRulesParser adds additional '*' to the robots name Key: NUTCH-1715 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-1715 Project: Nutch Issue Type: Bug Components: fetcher Affects Versions: 2.2.1, 1.7 Reporter: Tejas Patil Assignee: Tejas Patil Fix For: 2.3, 1.8
In RobotRulesParser, when Nutch creates a agent string from multiple agents, it combines agents from both 'http.agent.name' and 'http.robots.agents'. Along with that it appends a wildcard (*) to it in the end. This is sent to crawler commons while parsing the rules. The wildcard (*) added to the end gets matched with the first rule in robots file and thus results in the url being robots denied while the robots.txt actually allows them.
