---------------------------------
Summary: tika-4.0.0-alpha1 - convert-config-xml-to-json fails if
no config specified
Key: TIKA-4734
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-4734
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 4.0.0
Environment: Windows 11 with Java 17.
Reporter: Adrian Bird
I tried to convert my V3 config.xml files into V4 config.json files and looked
at the example in the
[documentation|https://tika.apache.org/docs/4.0.0-SNAPSHOT/migration-to-4x/migrating-to-4x.html#_configuration_xml_to_json]
{code:java}
java -jar tika-app.jar
--convert-config-xml-to-json=tika-config.xml,tika-config.json{code}
I got this error when trying it with my file:
{code:java}
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -jar %TIKA_JAR%
--convert-config-xml-to-json=tika-exif2-config.xml,tika-exif2-config.json
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.tika.exception.TikaConfigException:
Failed to load config from:
--convert-config-xml-to-json=tika-exif2-config.xml,tika-exif2-config.json{code}
I got it to work if I specified a config file in the command:
{code:java}
%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -jar %TIKA_JAR% -config=config-template.json
--convert-config-xml-to-json=tika-exif2-config.xml,tika-exif2-config.json{code}
*Is it meant to work without a config file?*
I'll mention something else here, but can create a new Jira if you want. The
output from using '–help' contains this line:
{noformat}
--config=<tika-config.xml>{noformat}
which I assume should be a .json file.
There is also a 'tika-config.xml' mentioned in the batch help output.
