OCR modes not applying

[bytec77]

Hello everyone,

I would like to set paperless so that no matter what kind of PDF is uploaded, a new OCR is performed with OCRmypdf.

This should actually be done with PAPERLESS_OCR_MODE=redo or force. But I've been working on this for half the day now. No matter what I set in paperless.conf or the WebUI, I always get [DEBUG] [paperless.parsing.tesseract] Document has text, skipping OCRmyPDF entirely in the log.

Paperless is installed in an LXC and otherwise runs without any problems. The paperless.conf is also read; I tested this by entering an incorrect DB password there, after which Paperless no longer ran. So the conf is read correctly.

I'm really at my wit's end. Maybe you have an idea.

Regards

Bytec
