Configure Artifactory with grails project - grails

Question

I am trying to configure a Grails project with remote Artifactory but failing to configure it properly.
Envionmanet setup
grails-2.4.3
artifactory.version 3.3.0
BuildConfig.groovy
grails.project.dependency.resolver = "maven" // or ivy
grails.project.ivy.authentication = {
repositories {
mavenRepo "http://SERVER/artifactory/grails-remote"
}
credentials {
realm = "Artifactory Realm"
host = "SERVER"
username = "USERNAME"
password = "PASSWORD"
}
}
grails.project.dependency.resolution = {
// inherit Grails' default dependencies
inherits("global") {
// specify dependency exclusions here; for example, uncomment this to disable ehcache:
// excludes 'ehcache'
}
log "warn" // log level of Ivy resolver, either 'error', 'warn', 'info', 'debug' or 'verbose'
checksums true // Whether to verify checksums on resolve
legacyResolve false // whether to do a secondary resolve on plugin installation, not advised and here for backwards compatibility
repositories {
inherits true // Whether to inherit repository definitions from plugins
mavenRepo id: 'Artifactory', url: "http://SERVER/artifactory/grails-remote"
}
dependencies {
// specify dependencies here under either 'build', 'compile', 'runtime', 'test' or 'provided' scopes e.g.
// runtime 'mysql:mysql-connector-java:5.1.29'
// runtime 'org.postgresql:postgresql:9.3-1101-jdbc41'
test "org.grails:grails-datastore-test-support:1.0-grails-2.4"
}
plugins {
// plugins for the build system only
build ":tomcat:7.0.55"
// plugins for the compile step
compile ":scaffolding:2.1.2"
compile ':cache:1.1.7'
compile ":asset-pipeline:1.9.6"
compile ":rabbitmq:1.0.0"
// plugins needed at runtime but not for compilation
runtime ":hibernate4:4.3.5.5" // or ":hibernate:3.6.10.17"
runtime ":database-migration:1.4.0"
runtime ":jquery:1.11.1"
}
}
Getting the below exception after executing the refresh-dependencies command for the project

How to configure grails 2.4.0 to resolve artifacts from artifactory with authentication?
http://wordpress.transentia.com.au/wordpress/2014/04/09/artifactory-and-grails/
Update1:
After looking closely into Artifactory's apache catalina log I found that for some of plugins it is causing some forbidden error.
2014-10-15 15:16:19,596 [ajp-bio-8019-exec-10] [INFO ] (o.a.r.s.RepositoryBrowsingServiceImpl:236) - Error while listing remote resources for codehaus/org/grails/grails-datastore-gorm-mongo: Unable to retrieve http://repository.codehaus.org/org/grails/grails-datastore-gorm-mongo/: 403: Forbidden
Can anyone please help me to find out whats wrong with configuration?

Rather than defining the repository authentication with grails.project.ivy.authentication, You should probably define the repository with:
grails.project.dependency.resolution = {
repositories {
grailsCentral()
....
mavenRepo(name: 'name', url: 'https://host/artifactory/reponame') {
auth(username: 'username', password: 'password')
}
....
}
}
