I'm using Groovy/Grails Tool Suite 3.2.0.RELEASE, Grails 2.2.2 and Groovy Compiler 2.0.
When I try to run an app I get the following error:
Error executing script RunApp: org/apache/ivy/plugins/resolver/ChainResolver
Can anyone help me?
Best regards.
UPDATED
Check your index.gsp file and remove the line showing the Groovy version.
org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerHelper.getVersion has changed to
GroovySystem.getVersion in newer Groovy builds bundled in Grails.
Initially I would have said that you upgraded projects from previous Grails versions.
Install a new version of Grails
Update the application.properties file
Run grails upgrade
Create a new blank project and compare the BuildConfig.groovy to see if a dependency needs upgrading.
I think that the index.gsp modification will do it. If not, please add details about the actions that you're taking and when the error occurs(stacktrace will also be needed).

I want migrate Geb functional tests from 1.3.7 to 3.1.9. Tried to create a new plain test with grails create-functional-test in IntelliJ an via console. Both failed with Command not found create-functional-test.
I created a new application with grails create-app and tried again grails create-functional-test, it works as expected.
Compared and improved all Grails dependencies in build.gradle.
Any ideas how i can fix this issue?
EDIT:
If i uncomment this line: //compile "org.grails.plugins:geb:0.13.1" in build.gradle File it is possible to create a Testfile but of course Grails does not know the GebSpec class.
EDIT 2: I solved it!
The old Plugin, see above, caused the problem. I deleted the dependency and reimported my apllication, know it works.
I'm porting an application from Grails 2.4.2 to Grails 3.0.4, and I'm having problems with some plugins that were installed previously. Specifically one that is referenced in a GSP page. The particular plugin is called google-visualizer, and I've found some info here:
https://github.com/bmuschko/grails-google-visualization/blob/master/grails-app/views/formatter/index.gsp
However, I am clueless as to how to install this. I have not found the particular jar file in any maven repo, so I can't add it as a Gradle dependency. In general, where is it documented how to install existing plugins in Grails 3.X? I've read the documentation on how to port existing plugins, but that's not what I'm trying to do. I simply want to tell Grails/Gradle that I'd like to use this particular plugin and have it resolve the dependencies for me. I've tried this syntax as shown here:
https://grails.org/plugins/tag/grails3
Example:
compile ":quartz:1.0.2"
I've put that line in the dependencies block in my build.gradle file, but it doesn't work. I get errors from Gradle. Is there a particular Maven repo that has to be added for plugins? Any help with this is appreciated. Thanks.
Grails 1.x and 2.x plugins are sadly not compatible with Grails 3.x.
You can find the plugins that already have been ported to Grails 3 at: https://bintray.com/grails/plugins/
The grails-google-visualization plugin is not released in a Grails 3 version, but from the repo, it appears that work has started on upgrading.
You can see the progress on a Grails 3 version in this issue: https://github.com/bmuschko/grails-google-visualization/issues/49
Benjamin searched for a new maintainer back some time ago, and found a volunteer - see this tread for details: https://twitter.com/bmuschko/status/498610606896066560
For those plugins that are most important, the Grails Core team maintains a list here: https://github.com/grails/grails-core/wiki/Grails-3-Priority-Upgrade-Plugins
Some of the old plugins will be replaced by their Gradle counterpart, fx. the codenarc plugin, that exist in a Gradle version already.
A simple way is to find out the JAR file for the plugin and then use them in Grails 3.0.4. In this way there is no need to change the source code of the plugin
I've been unable to create/import a Grails 2.4.3 project with IntelliJ 13.1.4. For example, when I create a new module, choose Grails, then click the create button (highlighted below) and choose the location where Grails 2.4.3 is installed, the project is not created correctly (I get a module with just a /src directory instead of a Grails project) and Grails 2.4.3 is not added to the list of Global Libraries. I don't have this problem with any earlier version of Grails.
I have used Grails 2.4.2 with Intellij 13.1.4 successfully. What I did is create the application with the grails create-app command and then do a File / Import Project in Intellij. Give that a try.
As an alternative solution to the IntelliJ 13.1.4 and Grails 2.4.3 bug you can:
grails create app <app-name>
cd app-name
grails integrate-with --intellij
This configured the project correctly for me with just minor tweaks to SDK and application server. This is a minor twist on the work around described above.
See grails doc here
I had the same problem with IntelliJ 13.1.4 and Grails 2.4.3, which i just downloaded.
After using the grails create-app command from the command line i had to import the project, by "create from existing sources" (point to the new top level folder), "Configure SDK" (to set for the Grails 2.4.3) and finally edit the run configuration. In a second test run with a new test project i did not have too configure the run config.
Then the Grails libs for the were downloaded and the basic app ran. Also the Grails specific option in the Intellij "Tools2 section were suddenly available.
So the given answer by Joe is the way to setup a new Grails project but the IDE should be fixed anyways.
It is not consistent. After several tries I can get some applications to work but it does not seem to be automatic. I think I am going to go back to Grails 2.4.2 until this is resolved within Intellij 13.1.4.
In the screenshot above, there are options for groovy/grails/griffon, and so far the alternative offered was command-line. Try choosing groovy option within intelliJ.
We are using IDEA 13.1.4 with grails 1.3.7 and grails 2.2.1(diff projects) and saw the same issue. It appears this is an intelliJ issue and not so much the grails version, so reverting your grails won't gain you anything. Choosing groovy, you should see a prompt for grails directory structure. This does work if you are presented with this option. Seeing inconsistencies here. Thanks to all for posting your workarounds; never hurts to have multiple approaches.

I have created a Grails plugin using Grails 2.3.3 and trying to use the plugin in a Grails application which was also created using Grails 2.3.3. Now, to use the plugin in the application, it needs to be published to a plugin repository first. So I attempted to publish the plugin into the local repository by using the commands:
grails clean
grails compile
grails maven-install
For the grails maven-install command I selected the option 2)InstallPlugin. But then got an error:
Error installing plugin: No such property: ERROR_MESSAGE for class: Inst
allPlugin (Use --stacktrace to see the full trace)
Ran the last command above with option --stacktrace and --verbose but did not get any clue as to what the problem might be. I also removed %HOME%/.grails directory and reran the above commands and still came with the same error.
After googling, I found a JIRA for this issue which was closed stating that it happens when Grails version is changed and cleaning up cache files will get rid of this issue. However, that solution is not working for me and, by now, I have spent couple of hours trying to fix this. Also I did not change my Grails version.
Has anyone faced this issue with Grails 2.3.3 or with any recent version of Grails? What was the solution?
Don't use install-plugin, add a dependency in BuildConfig.groovy.
I don't know where the 2)InstallPlugin "option" is coming from. The maven-install script packages your plugin and generates a POM file and the other files needed to be a valid published plugins. Then it copies these files to your local M2 directory, e.g. if your plugin name is "mycoolplugin" the files are copied to $HOME/.m2/repository/org/grails/plugins/mycoolplugin
Now you can "install" the plugin as if it had been published in a remote repo. Add a dependency in the app's BuildConfig.groovy using the usual format, e.g.
plugins {
build ":tomcat:7.0.50"
compile ":scaffolding:2.0.1"
runtime ":hibernate:3.6.10.7"
...
compile ":mycoolplugin:0.1"
}
I'm having issues getting something which seems very basic running with Grails. I want to call grails commands from an Ant script - Grails provides a Grails task to achieve this. I have defined the Grails taskdef and classpaths as per the docs however, no matter what command I call I get the same error...
grails-compile:
[grails] Resolving dependencies...
[grails] Dependencies resolved in 1192ms.
BUILD FAILED
/java/grailstest/build.xml:22: Unable to start Grails: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
Even when I create a new Grails app using 'grails create-app' and then run the integrate ant command 'grails integrate-with --ant' to generate a default build.xml, I get the same error when running any of the tasks in the generated build.xml.
I've tested this with Grails 1.3.1, 1.3.4 and 1.3.5 and am getting the same error.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? There must be something stupid I'm doing wrong or this would never have made it out the door of the Grails factory... ;)
I forgot to mention that I am using Ant version 1.8.1. I have just discovered that switching back to Ant 1.7.1 'solves' this problem but this is not really ideal as I need 1.8.1 for other build tasks. I'll submit a bug on the Grails issue tracker as it seems a lot of people are having the same problem.
I've just found the same issue. It seems that Ant 1.8 is not supported yet (but Ant 1.7 is), see GRAILS-6897. Some users have complained that the documentation does not state it strictly.
