Description

Java Code:

public static String parseBodyToHTML(String filePath) throws IOException, SAXException, TikaException
{
ContentHandler handler = new BodyContentHandler(new ToXMLContentHandler());

AutoDetectParser parser = new AutoDetectParser();
Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
try (FileInputStream stream =new FileInputStream(new File(filePath)))

{ parser.parse(stream, handler, metadata); return handler.toString(); }

}

While using this function for some files, I get the following error:
