Description

I started a crawl using the command line using nutch 0.7.1.

nutch-daemon.sh start crawl urls.txt -dir oct18 -threads 4 -depth 20

After crawling for over 15 hours the crawl crached with the following exception:

This was on the 14th segement from the requested depth of 20. Doing a quick Google on the exception brings up a few previous posts with the same error but no definitive answer, seems to have been occuring since nutch 0.6.
