Glassfish server issue when deploying Grails application - grails

Question

I have an issue when I try to deploy my web application on a GlassFish server but I don't manage to solve it! (I don't find any useful info on Google too...).
The application has been built using the Grails framework.
I don't understand why the MissingMethodException is raised. To be more precise, I have only done some updates to the application that was previously installed on this server. This old application worked!
Any help would be appreciate.
Hereby the server stacktrace:

Answer 1

Finally, I solve it!
I was developping with Eclipse using the STS IDE (www.grails.org/STS+Integration).
To create the WAR, we use the grails command in a terminal:
grails war
I thought grails automatically performs a clean operation before building and packaging the war. However, classes build by Eclipse remains in the WEB-INF/classes folder (see this feed).
So, to solve this issue:
In Eclipse:
Uncheck the "Build automatically" option
Perform "Clean Project"
Then, in a console:
Perform "grails clean"
Remove any files inside the target directory
Finally, build the war with "grails war"
