I'm testing lucene to write an application. In this testing, I use Tika to extract documents. When I use Tika, I meet this errors. Please explain me.
Errors are as follow.

Please help me.

a NullPointerException is thrown when you try to use an object which you didn't instantiate. The default value for a (non-instantiated) object is NULL, so, if you create an instance of an object, using the default constructor which doesn't set the variables in the object itself, and call the getter on one of the members of this instance, this is thrown.

I can't give a more precise explanation of your case since I'm not familiar with the classes you use, but it seems to me you forgot to instantiate one of your objects.

Thank you for your paying attention.
These errors are not occurred when I extract a small amount of documents.
