Thank you for responding.
Do you mean TMPDIR (possibly TEMP, TEMPDIR or TMP) environment
variables? I’ll admit I haven’t, partly because I wasn’t sure when a
temporary file would be created and therefore how to test it!
Yes that's what I mean. I can't tell you for sure when a temporary file
would be created, but I looked into the source code and found several calls.
Try this: take a huge PDF file (with hundreds of pages of texts that do
extract) and try a text extraction and monitor the temp directory while
it happens.

Have you tried to change the environment variables before starting the

I looked into the code, there are createTempFile() calls, but this
means the "official" temp directory is used.

Hi there,
I have a general question about using Tika Server 2.9.2 (with the
REST API) and its usage of /tmp. From what I understand, temporary
files may be created while processing files, but is it possible to
change the directory where Tika Server stores these temporary files?
Many thanks,
Keith.
