Check to see if you have a CopyField for a wildcard pattern that copies to
"meta", which would copy all of the Tika-generated fields to "meta."

Subject: ExtractRH: How to strip metadata
Greetings Solr folk,
How can I instruct the extract request handler to ignore metadata/headers
etc. when it constructs the "content" of the document I send to it?
For example, I created an MS Word document containing just the word
"SEARCHWORD" and nothing else. However, when I ship this doc to my solr
server, here's what's thrown in the index:
<str name="meta">
Last-Printed 2009-02-05T15:02:00Z Revision-Number 22 Comments
stream_source_info myfile Last-Author Inigo Montoya Template Normal.dotm
Page-Count 1 subject Application-Name Microsoft Macintosh Word Author Jesus
Baggins Word-Count 2 xmpTPg:NPages 1 Edit-Time 108600000000 Creation-Date
2008-11-05T20:19:00Z stream_content_type application/octet-stream Character
Count 14 stream_size 31232 stream_name /Applications/MAMP/tmp/php/phpHCIg7y
Company Parkman Elastomers Pvt Ltd Content-Type application/msword Keywords
Last-Save-Date 2012-05-01T18:55:00Z SEARCHWORD
</str>
All I want is the body of the document, in this case the word "SEARCHWORD."
For further reference, here's my extraction handler:
<requestHandler name="/update/extract"
startup="lazy"
class="solr.extraction.ExtractingRequestHandler" >
<lst name="defaults">
<!-- All the main content goes into "text"... if you need to return
the extracted text or do highlighting, use a stored field. -->
<str name="fmap.content">meta</str>
<str name="lowernames">true</str>
<str name="uprefix">ignored_</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>
(Ironically, "meta" is the field in the solr schema to which I'm attempting
to extract the body of the document. Don't ask).
Thanks in advance for any pointers you can provide me.
