TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len() #193
Description
Hello! I'm having trouble using Excalibur out of the box.
What I did
Installed Excalibur and set it up:
pip install excalibur-py
excalibur initdb
excalibur webserver
Then, uploaded a PDF via the web interface.
Expected behavior
Excalibur extracts data from my PDF for me.
Actual behavior
I receive a 500 Internal Server Error at http://localhost:5000/workspaces/c644cced-85fe-42a7-92c9-aa6dcc6fc72a:
