error while running grails command line - grails

Question

in my grails 2.3.4 application (after upgrading from grails 2.2.3) , when I run the grails command line grails install-plugin pluginname I get the below error , even I tried grails list-plugins I'm getting the same error:
Error Resolve error obtaining dependencies: Failed to resolve dependencies (Se log level to 'warn' in BuildConfig.groovy for more information): org.grails.plugins:tomcat:2.3.4 (Use --stacktrace to see the full trace)
i reviewed the BuildConfig.groovy there is no tomcat 2.3.4 what i'm using is 7.0.47 , here are my plugins :
runtime ":hibernate:3.6.10.6"
runtime ":jquery:1.8.3"
runtime :resources:1.1.6
build ":tomcat:7.0.47"
runtime database-migration:1.2.1
compile :cache:1.0.1
how i can solve this issue ?

Answer 1

you problem seems slovable due to the fact that ...you need to clean the grails project first without building it and then do
grails refresh-dependencies
and then finally
grails clean
and
grails compile
When you run refresh-dependencies your Grails application will try to resolve your grails plugins defined in BuildConfig.groovy file. If this doesn't work remove the plugins and do the above step until the error you have posted in the question vanished then add the correct plugin format and version with the correct precedence dependency, then make sure everything should work well.

Answer 2

Your dependencies are in a dependency block, but they are plugins. Put them in the plugins block of your BuildConfig.groovy file. So instead of what you have, put this:
plugins {
runtime ":hibernate:3.6.10.6"
runtime ":jquery:1.8.3"
runtime ":resources:1.1.6"
build ":tomcat:7.0.47"
runtime ":database-migration:1.2.1"
compile ":cache:1.0.1"
}
Also, this is no "dependency" block. This is a dependencies block, however. See this link for information on dependency resolution in Grails.

Answer 3

I need to add the following repo in buildconfig.groovy to the repositories section:
mavenRepo "https://repo.grails.org/grails/plugins"
