The problem is release of plug in resoouces runtime ":resources:1.2.8"

[psramkumar]

any idea when it is going to solve?

[EdZilla]

I was able to get it to compile with the update of resources to version 1.2.8, but still can't get run-app working. | Running Grails application | Error 2014-06-14 11:37:57,934 [localhost-startStop-1] ERROR resource.ResourceMeta - Resource not found: /assets/jquery.js | Error 2014-06-14 11:37:58,535 [localhost-startStop-1] ERROR resource.ResourceMeta - Resource not found: /assets/jquery.js

yes, you must comment

Even after fixing the isssues commented above, when I launch a new fresh app, the following error shows up: |Running Grails application Error | 2014-06-22 12:11:35,269 [localhost-startStop-1] ERROR [localhost].[/240kicksinsegu] - Exception starting filter sitemesh Message: org.codehaus.groovy.grails.web.sitemesh.GrailsPageFilter Line | Method ->> 59 | findClass in org.grails.plugins.tomcat.ParentDelegatingClassLoader

[JohnTheBeloved]

Did you run a "grails clean" before "grails run-app"?

[fernandodelvalle]

I tried again, I deleted every cache grails have. Then I created a fresh new project. I change only BuildConfig.groovy:

// compile ":asset-pipeline:1.8.11" runtime ":resources:1.2.8" compile ":kickstart-with-bootstrap:1.1.0"

That makes compile the whole project, but when I hit run-app (I use GGTS), keeps failing:

Browse to http://localhost:8080/asdf

I did "grails clean", tried again, same result

[JohnTheBeloved]

I think it has to do with the bootstrap plugin or another GUI plugin, asset-pipeline was meant to replace the resources plugin(http://grails.org/plugin/asset-pipeline ),the bootstrap plugin makes use of the resources plugin (https://github.com/joergrech/KickstartWithBootstrap/blob/master/grails-app/conf/KickstartResources.groovy), an older build which does not work well with grails 2.4.2 .. You have to tell it's author(https://github.com/joergrech) to refactor the code to use the newer resorces plugin or the asset pipeline plugin.............Hope this helps

[fernandodelvalle]

I think I've made it work. googleing sitemesh changes 2.4, I found: http://grails.org/doc/2.4.x/guide/upgradingFrom23.html So, I deleted two sections in web.xml about sitemesh, and it make the site load. I'll be testing funcionality, but it seems to work just fine.

[LucaMansutti]

I have a new project:

why?

[JohnTheBeloved]

more info, which grails version? which plugins ae you using? are you upgrading?

[LucaMansutti]

I use grails 2.4.0

    build ':tomcat:7.0.52.1'        // plugins for the compile step
    compile ':scaffolding:2.1.0'
    compile ':cache:1.1.3'
    compile ':asset-pipeline:1.8.3'        // plugins needed at runtime but not for compilation
    runtime ':hibernate4:4.3.5.2' // or ':hibernate:3.6.10.14'
    runtime ':database-migration:1.4.0'
    runtime ':jquery:1.11.0.2'

    runtime ":resources:1.2.8"

    compile ":kickstart-with-bootstrap:1.1.0"

Comment either asset-pieline or resources plugin, asset-pieline plugin was meant to replace resources plugin in grails 2.4

[LucaMansutti]

Now it's work fine

My BuildConfig.groovy is:

    compile ":kickstart-with-bootstrap:1.1.0"
    runtime ":resources:1.2.8"

thank you

Luca

I resolved the resource not found by removing the pipeline plugin but still I get the error below

}

[ajayush]

In BuildConfig.groovy Comment out the following compile ":asset-pipeline:1.9.6"

Add the following runtime ":resources:1.2.8"

Under src/templates/war/web.xml Comment out the filter tag with filtername sitemesh as follows <filter> <sitemesh</filter-name> <filter-class>org.codehaus.groovy.grails.web.sitemesh.GrailsPageFilter</filter-class> </filter>

Also comment out the corresponding filter-mapping <filter-mapping> <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher> <dispatcher>ERROR</dispatcher> </filter-mapping>

Run the app now!!

[hugoriar]

ajayush thanks now it works!

[gvenez]

This error occurs if you have run "install templates" at any point in the past before you upgraded to grails 2.4.x.

Simply running the "install templates" command again and overwriting the templates solves this problem

[dacloutier]

I disagree with the comment above.

I can reproduce this issue with brand new new grail 2.4.x project,

Steps to reproduce:

• create new grails project in ggts
• add: compile ":kickstart-with-bootstrap:1.1.0" -> to the BuildConfig.groovy
• grails kickstart

And then you start having fun (sarcasm)...

add resource dependency 1.2.8, then comment out assets-pipeline... then comment out sitemesh then..ok, seems to work.

Alas! no. Because all the other updated plugins require assets-pipeline.

Now, I was able to get the resources plugin to play friendly with the assets-pipeline plugin, but only when running in "prod" mode. Seems the assets plugin behaves quite differently in dev mode or prod mode.

Long rant over. I love this plugin, any way to have it upgraded to use the assets plugin instead of resources to bring it inline with the new versions of grails?
