Hmmm, Not sure how this all hangs together. But editing my solrconfig.xml as follows sorted the problem:-
<requestParsers enableRemoteStreaming="false" multipartUploadLimitInKB="2048" /> to <requestParsers enableRemoteStreaming="false" multipartUploadLimitInKB="20048" /> Also, my initial report of the issue was misled by the log messages. The mention of "oceania.pdf" refers to a previous successful tika extract. There no mention of the filename that was rejected in the logs or any information that would help me identify it!
