resource plugin error when upgrading from grails 2.3.8 2.4

Question

Im following the docs trying to upgrade my project from 2.3.8 to 2.4, but I am encountering these error(s)

localhost-startStop-1] ERROR resource.ResourceProc         


        

Answer 1

This is an issue in the jQuery-ui plugin in JqueryUiPluginResources.groovy in the following two lines:

def appCtx = org.codehaus.groovy.grails.commons.ApplicationHolder.application.mainContext

def plugin = appCtx.pluginManager.getGrailsPlugin('jquery-ui')

The fix for this is present in the following commit: https://github.com/gpc/grails-jquery-ui/pull/13
