Failed to extract text from pdf.

[5160jivan]

I was trying to run a simple project with the package installed as a nuget. My code was like:
TextExtractor textExtractor = new TextExtractor();
var pdfContents = textExtractor.Extract(@"files\sample.pdf");
Console.WriteLine(pdfContents.Text);

I get the following exceptions:
TextExtractionException: Extraction failed.
MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'Void System.IO.FileStream..ctor(System.String, System.IO.FileMode, System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemRights, System.IO.FileShare, Int32, System.IO.FileOptions)'.

I looked at the test file and the test code for pdf file does similar thing, so I am not sure why it does not work.
Thank you so much for your time.

Not sure if this has been resolved, but I received this error creating a .NET core project instead of a .NET Framework project. The TikaOnDotNet libraries showed with an incompatibility warning in the solution. After creating a .NET Framework project, the errors went away.

IMVM the basis of the library, as this is a java port, is not dotnet core compatible.
