Description

I am receiving the following error with Tika 4.0

SLF4J: The requested version 1.5.6 by your slf4j binding is not compatible with [1.6, 1.7]

pom.xml file entry:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.tika</groupId>
<artifactId>tika-app</artifactId>
<version>1.4</version>
</dependency>

I have to incorporate tika project with other projects which use 1.7 of SLF4J. Since Tika is not compatible with 1.7, I am not able to run my Tika service.

Why is Tika using lower versions of SLF4J? What is the workaround?
