: indexed file. The CommonsHttpSolrServer sends the parameters as a HTTP : GET request. Because of that I'll get a "socket write error". If I : change the CommonsHttpSolrServer to send the parameters as HTTP POST : sending will work, but the ExtractingRequestHandler will not recognize : the parameters. If I'm using the EmbeddedSolrServer there is no
that doesn't sound right ... if all you do is configure CommonsHttpSolrServer to use POST instead of GET it shouldn't change anything about how ExtractingRequestHandler is executed. can you provide the code youhave that uses CommonsHttpSolrServer, and info on how you have configured ExtractingRequestHandler so we can better understand what exactly you are doing? in general it seems weird to me thta you are base64 encoding some text and then sending it to the ExtractingRequestHandler -- why exactly aren't you just sending hte text as is? (is there some special feature of Tika i'm not aware of that only works if you feed it base 64 encoded data?) -Hoss
