Hi,

Am using Tika to index .msg files of Outlook. It has been working very good for me but am facing problem while indexing some .msg files. The indexing fails with the below Solr exception

SEVERE: org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Invalid Date String:' Fri, 14 Oct 2011 12:35:51 +0100'
                at org.apache.solr.schema.DateField.parseMath(DateField.java:165)

                at org.apache.solr.core.SolrCore.execute(SolrCore.java:1368)

Can someone please suggest a solution to overcome this issue and index these msg files successfully ?

Thanks and Regards,
Swapna.

This would look to be a SOLR issue. Tika will try to return an ISO-8601
date string where it can, but sometimes it gets a random String.
Downstream apps will need to handle this
