There's quite a discussion here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7137
But, I personally am not a huge fan of pushing all the work on to Solr, in a production environment the Solr server is responsible for indexing, parsing the docs through Tika, perhaps searching etc. This doesn't scale all that well. So an alternative is to use SolrJ with Tika, which is totally independent of what version of Tika is on the Solr server. Here's an example. http://lucidworks.com/blog/indexing-with-solrj/ Best, Erick On Wed, Apr 15, 2015 at 4:46 AM, Vijaya Narayana Reddy Bhoomi Reddy <vijaya.bhoomire...@whishworks.com> wrote: > Thanks everyone for the responses.
