s2-quickstart version 6.1.0 fails because there is no grails-app/conf/spring directory

[monetschemist]

Expected Behavior

After updating build.gradle with

implementation 'org.grails.plugins:spring-security-core:6.1.0'

running

./gradlew runCommand -Pargs="s2-quickstart org.myorg.myapp User Role"

should run to completion, creating the appropriate artefacts.

Actual Behaviour

Instead, s2-quickstart fails with the following message:

| Error Command execution error: grails-app/conf/spring/resources.groovy (No such file or directory)

Workaround

I have found that if I create a fresh application directory:

grails create-app org.myorg.myapp

then add the Spring security configuration line shown above into build.gradle

then issue a

mkdir grails-app/conf/spring

that the subsequent

./gradlew runCommand -Pargs="s2-quickstart org.myorg.myapp User Role"

succeeds. However, if I try creating this directory once the gradle build has failed, further errors occur.

There is probably a "clean" step in the s2-quickstart script somewhere that could be used to sort out the mess in order not to have to create a new app directory.

Steps To Reproduce

Update build.gradle as above and run s2-quickstart as above.

Just to update the above, the same holds true with Grails 6.1.2 and Spring Security Core 6.1.1.
