i think it's a Tika parser problem. I did not want to use Tika because of the need to interface with Java but sadly other methods require a lot of dependencies. I think you can try restarting your Tika server or maybe upgrade your Python to 3.7.

Also, Tika requires the Internet (unfortunately) so it is possible you might have not connected to Apache Tika.
